Evening Run

Afternoon Run

the "really fast guys" (16:XX) weren't there, so felt good and decided to just hit a hard first mile, not knowing if anyone could keep up. Ended up hitting 5:26 for that mile, happy about it, definitely not a max effort, but was really hoping to stay shoulder to shoulder w/ someone crazy fast. The guy who normally wins was there, but not running unfortunately. I went up and talked to him after, he said he hurt his knee 3 weeks ago, so that sucks.

got a really nice "trophy" - a painting by someone from the "schott community", which is a community dedicated to helping people with disabilities.. the painting is really sick.

at ~1 mile, someone at a water station was like, "yeaaah first place keep it up!!" and i was like, "thanks, not for long though.." lmfao. Around ~1.5+ the guy who won first overall caught me and just kept his ~6:00 min/mi pace, and he went on to win.

I had a solid second it seemed like, so just kept trying to relax and coast it out.. these 2 "cooldown miles" felt better than last week, but I think alot of that has to do with mindset: I wasn't disappointed in trying to keep up with #1 etc, my goal was completely different (hard 1, 2 relax), so it actually felt better mentally. It also turned out to be better splits for mile #2 & #3 than last week.

I didn't feel amazing when warming up, felt a bit dead.. which sucks considering how good I felt yesterday. So I knew my "bounce" wasn't there like I was expecting.

regardless, happy about it.

not going to race next week, going to just relax and get more 1-mile focus training in.

peace!!!!

Schott Communities 5k Race: 2nd overall, 19:21 official I think? mile-1 (hard, by myself, 5:26), miles-2/3 ("cooldown" lmao, 6:23, 6:37) ::: no watch, rain, puddles.
