In the spirit of short race reports, I ran a 5K for the first time in 12 months. Last year I ran 21:45 which was 1:35 slower than my PR. Today I ran 20:27, so a little bit closer to my PR but still have some work ahead of me. Nevertheless, it feels good to be healthy again. It was a fun race, flat for the most part and a fairly fast course. One of my teammates won the overall 5K title AND the Mens Masters Division in under 16:00. I won the female masters division, and was 4th female overall. There were 1281 runners. The trophies are beautiful (and I won a little cash, too). :)
Splits: 6:24, 6:38, 6:36, & 6:11-pace for that last, torturous .1.
Happy with the race and can't wait for another 5K next Sunday.
