we did this to help us hit our tempo times that have been hard lately. i'm trying to get 5:15- 5:20 min/mile pace for 20 minutes. i woke up really tired still and went to the school to sign up then went on a 2 mile warm up with the guys. took forever for the race to start but it finally did.
i went out hard but not really cause i was just trying to keep an even pace. felt easy at first and we were a little slow on the grass parts, but it was pretty flat which made it easier. i ran 5:20 pace for the first two miles with byron because that was his pace then the last mile i picked it up to bring mine down. ended with 5:16 average with is good for me because it's the first time i've finally done my time right. i guess this was kind of cheating because i did the pace for 16 min instead of 20..oh well!
i got a sweet bag with goodies in it for winning...second place didn't get anything... sorry byron! :) |
