Notes

Was able to reel in a HS kid with 1/10 to go, that felt really good. Race felt good, really thirsty took water at the aid station. Must have been even splits. Got up towards the front at the start and the whole field went out at sub 5:30. I caught myself getting sucked in quick but held back. First mile 6:22. Couple hills that I think I used to my advantage as it was an out and back course.

Mr. Greg C. said my 5k pr was ripe for the picking, he was right.

Wow. 1:30 PR in a 5K and sub 20 all rolled up in one. Fantastic.

It's time to change your avatar. You are no longer that guy.

Awesome job Mike. Way to rip it.

Greg C

Somehow I completely missed this. Nice!

Just checking this PR to see if the difference between this and Bob's race was due to the distance. Looks like you did not run with a Garmin or that you did not use the Garmin distance if you did. In any event, belated congratulations of this whopping PR. As I said in my comment to your performance yesterday at Bob's race, you keep getting faster, and the only question is where you bottom out. Good luck, stay healthy, and you'll soon be testing Egad's times.
