Notes
Extremely out of shape from lack of training. Slowest 5k in more than a year and a half. Not running will do that to you. Also, the cold weather did not help my lungs at all. Time to get cracking and better luck next time. Did not run all out, to be fair, because I felt like crap with my lungs burning and my foot asleep. So I probably could have done a little better with an all out effort. But not enough for it to be a good race.
Splits:
1M: 9:53
2M: 9:24
Last 1.1M: 8:43
MTA: I was surprised to discover that I placed 10th in my age group, despite my horrid time. That may say more about how slow a race it was overall, but still, makes me feel a little better.
