Comments:

Started out strong and felt good through the turnaround. About mile 5 I started to get hot and calf muscles started to cramp. Last 1.2 miles were rough, me and a group of guys missed the turn on the trail to come back, that added some time to the run. Not a good run for me.
What would you do differently?:

Pace myself better, not get lost.

Warm down:
