Good race, went out a little fast but controlled. Lost it a bit after about the 3rd mile, but hung in there. Good effort. Ran 6 miles the day before, but felt decent.
What would you do differently?:

Other than running faster, not much.

Very little warmdown, probably about quarter mile.

More miles. Still haven't hit 30 mpw. Need to get up to 35ish.

Great race, goes off on time, and organized. Could have used one more drink station.
