Overall, I thought the run was fantastic. I loved all the support and the energy. The weather was absolutely perfect! Running with friends was quite helpful. We were able to push each others paces at different times.
Unfortunately, after I hit the half-way point, my body began to tense up. So, I had to slow my pace. However, during the last mile and a half, I just regained energy and flew in. My run was slower than my usual, but I am pleased I finished and had fun!
