My advise would to just start out slow and steady and push hard at the end0

Have you run any shorter races?
Start slower than you think you should. You'll reel in others as you go.

Find a good solid pace and stick with it. Don't get caught up with the other runners. Eat something light before race like a banana and a protein shake. Stay hydrated and have fun0
