This race was mine for the taking and so I took it! NEW PR of 27:49! (59 seconds better than the previous PR) When I started running last year I set a goal of running a 5k in under 28:00. I finally did that tonight. It was a tough field, as I placed 10th in my age group.
Want to know the best part? The pace felt difficult, but not impossible. I started out fast, but I was able to sustain it. What a great feeling! And it is all due to my training. I love my coaches! Thank you, MPI!
Splits: 8:46, 8:51, 9:02, 1:10 (=8:00 pace)
I am trying to get faster so I can run a 5k with Bill without making him slow down so much. Now he keeps getting faster, and I may never catch him!
