SoJo 5K marathon as part of a 20 mile run...

  • 6 mile warmup
  • 5K* in 15:11 (or was it 13:11? see below...)
  • Short break to watch Andrea finish and change shoes
  • 7 mile AT Tempo in 37:15 (5:19/mi)
  • 4 mile cooldown, including the last 1.5 miles of the marathon w/ James.

*The 5K course was maybe a little short, but not by much (5 seconds or so?). We sort of followed the course map they posted online, but in reverse (of course I didn't know that beforehand, and overshot a turn just after the mile). It was a bit of a fiasco - I had two close calls with cars. And the 5Kers didn't get any Chick-fil-A! Felt really good on the 7 mile tempo run. Overall, a good (big) workout. It should be noted that the 2nd, 3rd, and 4th place overall finishers were the top 3 ladies (Allie, Jasmine, and Andrea).

Highlights...

Andrea, racing!

Plowing half-marathoners out of the way with Allie to clear a path for Mr. Smoore.

Official results!

I demolished this field of small children...

Nice race/workout. Imagine how much better you would have been with Chick-Fil-A as your fuel though.

Tell me about it... I didn't eat anything beforehand so I was pretty hungry by the end and looking forward to it. Instead I got to come home and eat spinach and salmon. Boooooooooo.

Well-done Jake! The girls ruled!! Love that.

Next time you try a chickFilA about midway in the race ... I want to be there when you do, and, this experiment should be done without trying it in practice beforehand :-)

nice. I hear they changed the course on you the last minute and postponed the 5k for 30 mins? pretty wierd. This race has a lot of potential but they definitely have some kinks to work out... I like the 5k / Tempo double. Solid day.

From Teena Marie on Sat, Oct 19, 2013 at 17:45:07 from 65.130.107.50

WOOT WOOT!!!! I heard your name called at the awards but was too short to see you!!!! :)

Also, you would think that my jaw would stop dropping every time I see that you have run a 5K with an average pace in the 4s! But nope ... still drops!!!

AMAZING!

From Jake K on Sat, Oct 19, 2013 at 18:01:27 from 67.177.11.154

You need Hokas, Teena :-)

Trevor, yeah - they delayed the start 5 minutes before we were supposed to start. Hence the long warmup, and just turning the whole thing into a workout. Honestly if someone had been leading that didn't study the course map (and run the course twice as a warmup) they would have just ended up in Murray... or hit by a car. After me and the top 3 girls, no one knew where to go, so everyone else was just turning around at random points on the bike path and not even running the whole course. I realize the 5Ks are always a sideshow to the main event, but they need to at least invest in some cones or something for it.

From Trevor Baker on Sat, Oct 19, 2013 at 19:50:38 from 174.27.248.209

Btw you set a big pr.. Results say 13:11!!! Call up saucony for a bigger sponsorship! Ha ha

From Jake K on Sat, Oct 19, 2013 at 21:48:17 from 67.177.11.154

That would have been sub 13 at sea level!

From Jason D on Sat, Oct 19, 2013 at 22:07:45 from 24.1.80.94

Nice workout, Jake. You're clearly a marathoner. 15:11 in the middle of all that is great. Salazar called me and asked if he could take you over. I said sure. A 15:11 5k guy I can definitely coach. A 13:11 guy in the middle of 20 miles? Best left up to him.

From Jon on Sat, Oct 19, 2013 at 22:32:53 from 107.203.52.135

Sasha might say the course isn't certified... ;)

From Matt Schreiber on Sat, Oct 19, 2013 at 22:46:46 from 66.17.102.185

Great workout (and race) today! You had some fast ladies on your tail today!

From steve ash on Sun, Oct 20, 2013 at 08:57:42 from 64.134.224.211

Either way 5 seconds or not, another great race again Jake.

From Matt Poulsen on Sun, Oct 20, 2013 at 10:26:33 from 174.52.216.185

Solid day! I agree -- you nailed your taper for Sojo perfectly :) Looking great, Jake!!

From Tara on Sun, Oct 20, 2013 at 21:31:26 from 75.169.137.75

Sheesh, that's quite the day! Nice work, Jake!

From Christie on Mon, Oct 21, 2013 at 07:44:23 from 74.213.202.246

Dang! Solid day Jake.

From Rachelle on Mon, Oct 21, 2013 at 10:05:06 from 159.212.71.199

Wow I kind of feel like a pansie after reading your Sat workout (race). Awesome day of training Jake!

From Kass on Mon, Oct 21, 2013 at 22:23:43 from 155.97.240.30

Way to hold off the ladies! It took a huge PR to do it!

From Steve on Tue, Oct 22, 2013 at 10:00:27 from 68.188.56.70

Awesome run Jake!
