Notes
50 degrees and overcast with light winds. Felt really good. Felt left hamstring all week and 1st 6 miles but then forgot about it. Ran first 17 controlled with Paul except he got a bit anxious 9-12 and we were sub 6.15 for those miles but he began to slip off pace so I pushed the next 3 on my own. Hit 20 feeling pretty decent and managed thru the last 10k. Full course gets lonely with limited spectators and competitors. Course is beautiful. Lots of lap traffic passing half marathons which was especially crowded the last 4 miles on narrow path. Had 3 Gels. Probably should have carried 4. Finished 7th overall and 1 master. 2.47.34. Really pleased with my patience and fairly even splits. Worn flat which felt great. Kept shirt on thru 20 miles. Wore gps but turned auto-lap off. 6.19, 6.19, 6.13, 6.23, 6.19, 6.19, 6.26, 6.19, 12.25 (612, 6.13 so a bit fast), 6.18, 6.12, 6.10, 6.28, 6.27, 6.26, 6.24, 6.21, 6.18, 6.27, 6.31, 6.32, 6.34, 6.37, 6.37, 6.41, 1.19
