5k Challenge

I have not been to one of these for ages.I went with very low expectations in regard to time. I have not run much in the last 2 weeks other than 2 long races. I have not done any speed work in months.I thought I could get under 25 but not by much however I was prepared to focus on 23 minutes. I started of with the 22 minute group and was just hoping to hold on for a long as I could.

By about 2k it was stretched and I just kept trying to click over 4.20k's it was hard as i have not been running anywhere near that pace in months. Well I just kept holding it and managed a very pleasing 21.30.

That's a nice 5k time Ray. I'd be very happy to run that.
