Notes
love this race for 2 yrs in a row. beat last yr by shy 1:30. cool @ start but warmed up quickly to low 70"s ?? beautiful course with rolling hills of variety including couple fairly short but steep. 1/2 race was down on waterfront & flat but had to go down/up & up/down at front end & back end of race. last hill just before 9 mile up the walking bridge was tough. good effort, good times. even though beat last year dropped 2 spots in AG. Silver/Blue new GTS 14 shoes worked out grea! no issues of any kind at any point including hamstring & breathing not really an issue.
gentle short warmup. plan was around 8 for 1st mile & gradually pick up pace. hit 1st mile around 7:50 & held most of race. overall 7:49 pace
