Notes

5K time trial just for the hell of it. First mile was uphill and into the wind, which sucked, but at least the same effort resulted in faster splits for the last two miles. Was definitely redlining by a little after two miles. Was gasping for air and wheezing as I ran down Main St and I'm sure I frightened a few people. Kick wasn't super great, but I was already maxed out by the time I hit 3 miles. Was hoping to be under 18:30, and really wanted to be under 18 minutes, but had no idea how feasible that is. This is actually a great surprise; my fastest 5K in almost two years, and I'm sure an actual race environment would have taken a few seconds off this time. Guess low mileage hasn't completely destroyed my fitness.
