I ran the 5k because I was completely underprepared for the half.
1st mile - 6:41
Probably started a little too fast. Especially considering that I was thinking maybe I'd walk if I got tired.
2nd mile - 7:07
I got really tired at the turn-around point. I let a couple people pass me, and I just tried to keep my breathing going and not have too much runny nose.
3rd mile and .10 - 7:54
I really wanted to finish strong, so I held back quite a bit. Geez, it seemed like a really long 3rd mile. My strategy didn't help much. I ended up not having a kick at the end. I just cruised in with the runners that were near me. I was a little disappointed that I didn't finish with a sprint, but totally happy with my time. I am hoping this encourages me to run more in the next few weeks.
