Evening Run

Afternoon Run

goal was to PR my 2-miler, weather was brutal, ended up calling an audible (just trying to survive and hang on to third). Was almost as bad as the 2018 Tropical 5k, lol - nothing can top that though, like 20mph headwind from start to finish and a bridge.

Lead for 1.84 miles. Guy who ended up getting first seemed like he was hurting at that pace (5:2X) but I guess not, he just kept pushing. 2nd place guy seemed pretty strong too. I def was the weaker of the 3 today, thus 3rd place.

was a nice course though.. very nice area too. ran around just taking some photos, relaxing, absorbing. then watched some DJ's at a concert (we got a "free" pass by signing up for the 5k).

First mile @ 5:24 felt really good. Should have gone even faster but was trying to throttle it back slightly anticipating the 2nd half of the race (headwind half). I really think I can hit 2 low 5:2X's, need to try it out next weekend (probably going to do 2 races).

peace!
