Had to switch my shoes within the first 1k to my good old ASICs as runing in vivo hurt a lot after the long run last Saturday. Ran extremely slowly - legs still sore but got better over time but my pace was low.

10k Race

The TCS world 10k 9000 runners - it took almost 2 minute to cross first 200m from stadium to road and after that the first 2 k was messy - too many people and hardly a place to run...

But did well my Garmin showed 50:46 for 9.8k and official 10k time was 53:07
