Ran the local turkey trot at my parents house with both Mom and Dad.
Splits:
1 - 6:39
2 - 6:53
3 - 5:29 (short course - pace was 7:02)
I thought I was in much better shape than overall average pace of 6:51. Not much faster than the 5K I ran over the summer. I ran at a pretty good effort, probably could have run a litte bit faster... I think my 10K and HM paces have improved, but I haven't focused on fast running at all. I have been pretty much running easy full time, but in the last month, I've added one track work out a week of longer intervals. Am going to switch over to shorter/faster intervals to imporve my fast paces.
Even though I was disappointed in my time, I really enjoyed the race. After I finished, I ran my dad in. He finished in 27:30, and then I ran my mom in. She finished in 35. Great day!
