Whatever happens, make sure you run the last 100 at 3:45 mile pace. Take no prisoners during the sprint.

So this year you have run 5:28 pace to run 27:11. Do you run with a GPS watch? I don't care if it will get you disqualified, borrow one if you have to.
Try going out the first 1/2 mile evenly AND finishing it in 2:45. Then run the second 1/2 mile in 2:45 again. Use the pacing function and nail it exactly.
Then speed up to 5:20 pace and finish the race as evenly as you can. If you really are in 27:11 shape, you will crater at about 4.5 miles. If you have never really paced correctly, you will run 26:40 +/- GPS error.
The tricks to making it work are to not start fast off the line, to exactly hit an even 5:30 for the mile, to speed up to only 5:20 pace and most importantly (because it is your last race ever) to hold the 5:20 pace even if you think you are going to crater at 3.5 miles.
For once in your life, stop thinking and follow the plan. Good luck.

The correct answer is obvious: run it on PURE HATE.
Run hard from the gun. Run every step as if its your last. Good luck! Let us know how you do!
I think you will be in the same race as me so go out in 5:20 that's my goal
Run in a super Mario costume. But hide a shotgun in your costume. Last half mile, pull it out and start randomly firing at runners and spectators alike.
So what did you do kid?
