Notes
So this was a last minute decision race -- which I'm starting to make a habit.
This was also a dummy race! I eyed up a few fit looking women at the beginning and just decided to head out with them and see what would happen. I haven't really been doing anything that would help be prepare or know how to run a 4miler. We came through the first mile in 5:45 and I felt good, but I was worried about not really being in shape.
I decided to ease off and just settle in for a mile, and I was super shocked that the three women all completely disappeared. I thought they had been setting the quick pace, but maybe I was. I don't know. I ran the rest of the race pretty much alone. It wasn't a super fast time, but it felt good to get out and race a bit.
