This was a great run! The weather was beautiful for Mid June. The weather started in the mid 50's and warmed up to the 60's with a light breeze. The route was flat fast course. The 5K is on a paved route with no hills. Elevation for this route is 6030.
I started out at a pace of 11'00 and at the 1 mile mark I was at 11:45. This was mostly down hill, then I hit mile two at 22 minutes. So I had picked up the pace just a tad. I like having people call out times, it really helped pace me. I rounded the finally turn and headed in. I kicked it up the last 200 yards to get a strong finish, then I got stuck behind a slow person who was trying to get in. You have to file single file at the finish! Which is so stupid, I hate to do races with out the chip timing. But all in all I am seeing progress. My next race will be the Alex Hoag run for Sunshine in July.
