24:21 (7:49/mi), 499th overall, 39th in group (M 35-39).
Cramped just past mile 2 after drinking some water. I'm satisfied, as I wanted to be under 25:00, and was hoping to maybe break 24:00 (which I probably would have had I not had to relieve a side stitch and cramps in my mid-back between miles two and three). Despite that, my pace was consistent; 7:45 / 15:35 at the timing stripes. Managed a strong but not great kick at the finish.
70 and muggy and windless and sunny; about as different from last year's 50, wind, and rain (26:35, followed by puking) as we could get.
I hope it's a bit cooler, with a light breeze, tomorrow for the half.
