In no way is that hot. I will give you warm
Again, what kind of times in 5K and marathon have you done?
Was on the ground, conditions were difficult.
Rough day for racing at Twin Cities this morning

Only 1 US male and 2 US females were able to hit the OT standard today. It was 72 degrees and 20mph winds. I ran slower today than I did in 2018 at Boston when it was 38 degrees rain and 20mph winds.
You are 7.5 years older now. Of course you ran slower.
I ran my PR in my 40s... after running marathons for over 10 years at that point. Getting older doesn't mean slower.

Just saw that one of the favorites dropped at 10 miles when she found glass inside her shoes.
Who was that?
Also Emily Covert ran a 3:06, first marathon for her?
Congrats to the winners for qualifying the for the trials on a hot day
ZAP runner Tuxbury dropped at 9.5 “with a shard of glass” in her shoe

I ran the 10 mile and couldn't even hit my half marathon pace that I did for a half marathon in May this year. Sunday it was hot and wind was noticeable but honestly the hills were worse than I remembered they were. I did meet my top 150 goal though.

But the 10 mile was at 7 am, is that correct?It was only like 68-69 degrees at that time. And no sun. Is that really hot for a 10 mile race?

compared to last year, it was quite a bit slower. How much depends on the place:
1st - 5:22 slower
5th - 7:51 slower
10th - 12:01 slower
25th - 9:31 slower
50th - 7:22 slower
100th - 4:35 slower
500th - 5:08 slower
1000th - 7:12 slower
I also heard from a lot of people and saw strava posts showing many people slowed down immensely around 18mi

That is rather meaningless data. Surely you can grasp this?

Conditions were clearly not suited for PRs, but also were not brutal. The temps and the course rewarded a more conservative approach. If you glance through the times, almost no one achieved negative splits. The best performers were close to even. A LOT of people blew up in the second half. My adjusted pace fit this calculation almost exactly: .01
