Notes
Steeplechase race for Ian. I was going to run the 25K with Andy and D but I only got 1 training run in over the last week so I didn't feel confident to do the whole 15.5 miles so I opted to run the 5K with Chris and Joe. I'm so glad I made that decision. I just wanted to have a really good race and a good time with my friends. This was definitely the most fun I have ever had in a 5K race. I ran the whole race with Joe and I had a great time. We ran the first mile at 8:22 pace which I thought was a little to fast but since it was downhill It was hard to gauge. I did my best to slow the pace enough in the 2nd mile so we could maintain our pace which I think we did a great job of. The race finished with a significant long uphill but Joe really dug deep and pushed all the way to the end. Joe and I finished with a strong kick and a PR for him which is amazing! Really proud of you Joe and can't wait to run with you again.
