Notes
Would have liked more warmup, but up late for early start, got ride with Sean.
Went a little harder first few miles than I intended to stay close to Sean. Decent group of about five runners through halfway, but their pace dropped and I tried to maintain. Passed 3-4 others by 8 miles. Legs tired on second half, but did not get much worse although mile 11 was the worst. Over last four miles I thought I could close the 15 sec gap on runner in front of me, but he maintained. Held off Sean although I think he reduced the gap.
Course was nice, quite a bit of shade, tiny rolling hills, some crushed limestone mi3-6, most of the rest was asphalt bike path. I was happy with results - finally a real PR for the half rather than second half of NYC marathon, but a little room for improvement. Knee was ok - feel it a little but not bad.
