Goal: under 30 minutes

The race felt good. I started near the middle of the pack and lost a few seconds a) reaching the start line and b) dodging around people. The first mile felt great and was mostly downhill. The next two miles had long hills. The first hill wasn't so bad, but I really felt it the second time around. I should have kicked harder at the end, but I felt weird about passing an older man. I could have knocked maybe 5-10 seconds off if I had started closer to the front of the pack and had run faster at the end. I'm still very happy about it all. I won 3rd place in my AG and won a raffle prize. :)
