Notes
Started off overcast & upper 30s - slightly chilly. Quickly became sunny & warmed up to low 50s. Should have worn the crop top since I definitely was too hot in the 2nd half. All concrete made this painful on the legs. Also, ran most of the race solo - 2 mins behind first & 2 mins ahead of 3rd. Very difficult to hold the pace on my own, but I managed it. Very much a mental race.Wanted to maintain a mid 6:30s, but hip/pelvis/back was causing a lot of pain, especially through the second half and it was a struggle to hang on under 7:00/miles. First female, 2nd over all finisher. Not a PR, but close & pleased with my run considering all my variables.
