Kind of stupid today, ran the first 3 miles in 6:47, 6:13, and 6:28. I stretched out a bit before running a 6:54 on the way home. Probably would have been better to run about a minute slower for all of those miles. I'll run again Thursday before my 5k and will just do 2/3 miles at no faster than 7:30 pace. Then Saturday is going to be fun. I'm not in amazing shape but I have been running a little.

Ran over to the recreation center and talked to some people. There was a kid trying to run under 18:00 for the first time so I told him I'd pace him for it.

I just stayed at 18:00 pace and he ended up running about 17:30! So that was exciting to see him hit his goal and win the race, I had a fun. Went on a cool down with him, apparently there's a track club here, he said they meet at 6 each night so maybe I'll run with them sometimes!
