Maybe felt too alright afterwards, though don't think I could've squeezed out enough to gain another place (~1 minute for that). Never had a "oh shit how am I going to finish this race" which might be required at this distance? Didn't check heart rate until final km or two when I realised it was only at like 171-172. I'm not doing this racing super well.

The 13k started a few minutes earlier so spent the entire race weaving through people doing that one. Expected that to happen though. The 4k started later than us so no confusion there at least, could somewhat keep track what place I was in.

Tina volunteered, she had to signal the way and took pictures of me at the same time.

Parts that sucked: a few cobble sections, climbing stairs (20 steps?), a pi turn while climbing up to a bridge with another guy somewhat in the way (made me go to pretty much stand still).

Started out a bit faster than I had in mind due to the usual follow group+realise they are going way faster. Don't think that affected me.

Tried to press lap button when I saw a sign, rest is autolaps. Forgot to change autolap from every two km.
