I ran OK, but I got out too slow. I think I was basically stuck in marathon pacing mode and didn't start moving until late in the race. In any event it was an OK race. I missed the first few mile splits but here is what I have:

 

4 miles: 24:02

5 miles: 5:52

6 miles: 5:35

7 miles: 5:39 

 

This was a 1:45 PR for that course so that was good but I really should have gotten out faster.  It was beautiful weather despite the prediction of rain. The wind was a bit gusty, and once you made the turn onto the highway the wind was brutal.

Easy with Ozzie in the rain??? I definitely did not race yesterday as my legs feel very little different than the day after a speed workout. Perhaps I need to do some pacing work on the track and for sure I am going to have to enter a few more 5k and 10k races to learn how to pace shorter.
