Finish 11:35, total time 3 minutes shy of 2 hours.

Distance: 6 miles - home to start of 10 km course but skip the final loop up Fairfield and down Northern Pkwy and just do Linwood back to the start and then home.  That's something like 1.3 miles for home to start and start back to home, so 4.7 miles of the 10 km (6.2 mile) course today.
