warmed up for 2.5 miles. 2miles at 10:30 pace. 0.5 miles with jogging and short bursts of the warm-up.
>3000 people in the race. it took almost a minute to get to the start after the race started. My first mile was in 8:10. the second mile was not marked. the third mile was marked (but not accurate?) and that 2 miles segment was 14:42 then the last 0.1 was 1 minute flat (which doesn't work because I was going pretty hard). anyway... I think the course was accurate but the 3rd mile marker was not. 2 years ago I ran the 5 k in around 25:26(?) so pretty good improvement.
after the race I ran back to get Beth and then ran in with her. I then did some more running to get to my total for the day.
pace for the race was 7:41.
