Comments:

This was an amazing run for me. I am still shocked at how fast I ran it and how well I placed.

What would you do differently?:

Nothing. Well, actually this run came at the end of a heavy training week and the day before I ran 20 miles so I suppose if I was specifically trying to produce my very best result I would have tapered for the race but I have bigger fish to fry in the near future.

What limited your ability to perform faster:

Lack of a taper.

Performance:	Good
Course:	Straight out and back on a Rails to Trails trail. The first 5 miles were almost perfectly flat and then the next 10.5 miles climbed 1000 feet. The course was pretty much a straight line for all practicle purposes, just one section that had turns requiring anything close to slowing.
