Good run. Since that was my first half marathon besides half marathons during triathlon, I was sure how to pace myself. I was aiming at 4:10 pace and that's what I got. There was a moment of some slowdown in pace, party due to the fact that i was taking it easy to attack last 3 km and party because i dropped 2 guys that were right behind me and no one was ahead of me.
Good race.
What would you do differently?:

Train more run:) There is always something that I could improve. I'm pretty happy with race results, but I think I can run faster in the future.

Not enough training for this distance

Steady is our walk. Ignoring the pain that is radiating from my feet, I continue to place one foot in front of the other. Again I wonder, “Why am I doing this?”

Having three seasons under my belt I thought I knew what I was doing. That all changed with a few new challenges and a bunch of new friends.

I will assume you have not run consistently more than 6 miles and have never completed a half-marathon. I believe running your first half-marathon is a big task which requires dedication and work.

My training was taking off. I had never felt stronger. I was making bigger strides than I ever had. I was stronger and faster than I had imagined myself ever being.
