8am start. Rather cool and breezy feeling 41 degrees.  I have not raced a 5k in quite a while, so I wasn't sure what to expect.  I warmed up with a 1.5 mile jog, part of which Joe Bell joined me.  I haven't ran much with Joe lately either.  It was nice to chat.  There were about 300 runners. Part of the Crossroads series that seems to draw some good competition. 

First mile felt relaxed at 6:02.  This wrapped around the High School where I do most of my training.  Still within a good crowd of 10 or so runners.  Mile 2 I didn't increase the effort any.  This mile was with the wind and netted me a 6:17. The last mile I gave everything I had.  I noticed that my cardio was not on par with the legs.  Probably because of the lack of speed work.  This mile into the wind netted a 6:13.  the last tenth is a straight shot into the shoot.  0:37.  (All times balanced for running long)

 

19:11 overall
