Got to the start with about a minute to spare. I already knew this wasn't going to be my best race, haven't had a good night of sleep in over a week and probably one nights worth of decent sleep since the week started. With the washer flooding, car getting broken into, and driving cohort members to the airport early in the morning, in addition to the research proposals due next week, my sleep schedule has been pretty off.

From the gun (they actually used a musket which was kinda new) just ran with the top pack of 3 or 4 guys, around a mile I started getting some asthma but I kept up pretty well. Came in around 17:30.

My head was pretty cold afterwards so I just ran right back to the car from the finish. I'm hoping to do another 5k on the track before I go home, once my body gets out of the funk the past few days have put it in.
