Raced a Live 5k on Ppl Trails. Friday night race series - started a t 7p, which was tough for my body...  Mile 1 and 2 were okay (5:45, 5:51).  Not so much for the rest of it.  18:46 with a 6:19 mile 3 split

2 miles hard, then 8x0.25 in downtown Indy - Canal and City streets are pretty scary these days.  6:35 - 6:45 pace, then down in to the 5:45-55 range for quarters.  New job is on the 28th floor of a building downtown.  7.52 total - 52:08
