Ran from house downtown to Series 5k race - 8 miles WU prior to race. Humidity lower, but, still pretty high. Race was interesting - a couple younger kids went out quick and were coming back after the halfmile - 1mile. Knew the leader was a local highschool kid and was legit (about 1minute up) Passed the last 15 yr old about 0.25 from finish line, so he held on pretty well.
Was working really hard for 6-6:05 pace, which is pretty discouraging. Going to keep at it, but, not expecting much in 5k/10k's in the near future. 5k - 18:59
"Cooled down" with the high schooler who won. Pretty quick out and back on the people trail.
Jogged home down SR 11 slowly.
