Official time 2:04:29 for a 9-min PR. So happy with this, since my goal was to get under 2:10. From the start, my legs felt a little blah, and I worked hard the entire way and pushed myself harder than I thought possible. It was awesome to look down at my watch and see paces in the high 8s at times. Overall, I'm really proud of what I accomplished today. Splits were pretty even, though the first mile I had trouble finding a comfortable pace. Hauled it home from mile 13 on like I've never been able to haul it at the end of a race before.

Splits: 10:18, 9:46, 9:39, 9:35, 9:24, 9:15, 9:29, 9:18, 9:16, 9:29, 9:28, 9:16, 9:16, 1:00 (8:16 avg).
