Indy Mini (I hate that race title) Training Series 5k 2/13. I would like to say 18x but who knows what the weather conditions will be around here on Sat. So I will take the "sub 20" weak ass cop out route.
Hah. Talk about high expectations. I am in no kind of 5k shape right now. 20:07 and a big fat FAIL. Finished 3 AG.

8sec from your goal is hardly a big fat fail. Racing in these temps sucks.

I think you're being a little hard on yourself, too. It's February. That said this is why I like being in the Swamp. Nobody is ever completely satisfied.
There is a long dark road ahead of me.
Just knocking the dust off.
I fly.
Bring it on.

ran 4:23.52 and definitely had something left in the tank at the end. it's the first time i've run a similar race in 9+ months, and it's about an 8 second pr. alititude adjustment ( -5.28 seconds) brings down the time to 4:18.24. so i'd say it was a good race and it a good prep for my conference meet in 2 weeks.

Nice, Dickey.
Yeah, C-R, take it easy; I think you've gotta consider the weather and the fact that it's early in the season.
If we don’t try we’ll never know. At least I can find out how good I can be. I can have an answer at the end of the days, and have a hell of a good time with the process. -Desi Davila

Well done Dickey!
And generally stated, I'm pissed about the performance today which will fuel my working harder for the next one. No excuses - I just didn't put in the work to get the results.

It was my own fault too, I went out way to hard, 3:09 first k, 5:0x first mile, 9:4x low for 3k, then I died.

16:39 for my 5k, a 36 second PR, but I missed my goal. It was my own fault too, I went out way to hard, 3:09 first k, 5:0x first mile, 9:4x low for 3k, then I died.
Hell of a PR for that level, so I wouldn't be too hard on yourself! Live and learn.
wow great races Dickey and Father Russia,you guys are speed demons.
I did the Martha's Vineyard 20 miler yeserday. 2:12:30(6:38m/mi). I wanted to run a 6:40 pace because thats the pace I would like to run Boston in so I'm happy I hit my pace but a bit disapointed in how difficult it was. Started loosing it at 18-19 so I definatly couldn't keep it for 26.2 miles yet. Good thing there is still 2 months to Boston.
Next up, I get to crush my half marathon PR in two weeks.
