Race: High Fives 5k (3.11 Miles) 00:16:53, Place overall: 1, Place in age division: 1
Total Distance
20.50

AM: 15 mi. Jeremy Ranch run, then over to the Pearl Izumi Outlet for 2 new pairs of Streak 2's.   And off to Ruth's for a solid brunch. Now relaxing until the High 5's 5k at 5:55 PM way up on 18th ave.

PM: Race way up in the Aves, so High they call it the High Fives 5k.  Started and finished at the church on 18th ave and was about as flat as you can make a 5k up there, which means lots of rollers, run this morning was a good warm up for this.  Splits were all around 5:35, and got under 4 min/mile pace for the kick thanks to the significant downhill into the finish, well at least according to Mr. Garmin.

Productive morning. Now just cap it off by winning the hardest 5K in the world, and I think you'll be able to call it a successful day.

No one has ever pulled off the Jeremy Ranch run / win a 5K in the same day combo before. You've entered uncharted territory!

Flat? How is that possible? Great job!

Wow. Quite the day of running. Nice work! A 5k on a Saturday night? Could we see a race on Sunday within the next 10 years? Only in Avenues.
