Notes
2009 Johnnycake Jog
This was the summer target race that had planned my 8 week 5k/10k plan on starting after May 17th Marathon. At time of plan Goal was 37:30 (7:30 pace) and previous 5 mile PR was 44:15 (11/08).
At time goal seemed aggresive, but doable. Over the 8 weeks ran the following races as speedwork:
1. 5/31 - 5k (22:47) - PR
2. 6/13 - 5K (23:02)
3. 6/21 - 5 miler (39:58) PR at the time and still 2:28 from goal.
4. 6/28 - 10K (49:35) - PR on a bitch of a course
5. 7/12 5 Miler (37:58) - New PR and 2:00 of PR from 3 weeks ago. Still :28 from summer target.
Race Day:
Ran this race last year in 45:54 in blazing heat and struggled big time down the 2 mile homestretch.
