My time today was 20:57. I was hoping to run a little faster but it is 19 seconds faster than I ran 3 years ago. I started out, warming up running two miles. A mile up the first part of the course and back.
I don't know what to say about the race 5Ks hurt so much. The first mile of the course is tough and then the second mile is worst. I think I did a pretty good job of pacing, because my place didn't change much after the first mile. Today was pretty cold the hardest part was the slick corners. Turning into the Dee Event Center I had to walk to keep from falling on my can. When I made the last turn and see the clock I see 20 I push as hard as I can to make sure I break 21 minutes.
Splits
6:43, 7:15, 6:20, 0:41.22 for the last 0.11 a 6:03
Split from 2010
6:32, 7:31, 6:37 and 37 seconds for the last .1 miles
After the race, AngieB congratulated me and I asked if she was planning on doing some more running. AngieB was planning on running with a few friends. They were nice enough to let me come along. We ran another 4.8 miles.
