I thought I was crazy to race a 5K after Pineview but I did so much better than I thought I would. (I was crazy because somehow I forgot to pin my number on.... like I haven't run a race before) I ran a 2 mile warm up with strides. I got out fast-well everyone did. It was entertaining seeing people drop out after sprinting the first .15. My first mile was 5:30. I focused on pushing on the flat part past the post office because that's where I slowed down so much last year. I caught and passed someone on the downhill to Foothill. My 2 mile was 11:00 and then I decided to try and break 17. I pushed hard down Sunnyside trying to close the gap between me and the next guy. I never caught him but it helped to see someone to chase. I finished first girl (or woman as they announced) and broke 17! I was really happy. I ran 7 miles cool down with Bill and Tomy. |
