Ran next to Chris for the first mile feeling pretty relaxed and under control. At the mile mark I pulled in front of Chris, but felt GI issues and at about the 1.5 mile mark decided to try and relax, not think about a bathroom stop, and reserve energy for a finishing kick if Chris approached. At 2 miles I continued this strategy and about 2.5 felt Chris on my shoulder. However, I had been running under control and had a lot left in the tank. During the final 600m I accelerated, passed quite a few people, and put a significant gap between Chris and myself.
Overall I felt under control and did not feel as though I had to dig to deep. Without the GI issues I feel a faster race was definitely possible.
