So fun. The mass start was sllloooow. But the run across the bridge was awesome. Took 3 one minute walk breaks during the first 4 miles, jogged everything else. Jogged all the way up the arch and down to the finish with no walking. Felt great.
What would you do differently?:

Start closer to the front of the 3000 people.
