Jake challenged me to a race the day after getting home from a 2-day 25 hour drive, I also hadn't run in 2 weeks. Needless to say, it did not to well. 5:30 about. I have a virtual Thanksgiving 5k race tomorrow so hopefully this will get my muscles nice and warmed up haha. If I break 18 I will be pretty excited.

Ran the 5k course but I'd left my garmin charger at Jake's yesterday, so I used my phone to time myself. My phone died with about 500/600 meters left. The last time I looked at strava was around the 2 mile marker, and I was at a little over 11:30 so I had been doing alright. Walk/jogged home.

Oh well, I can run the course until saturday so I'll just do it again. Good to make me run more anyways.

Rough go of 5k number 2, probably a combination of fatigue, not yet being acclimated to the high altitude, and most importantly being out of shape.
