5K Results

5K Race: 00:27:57

Beat my target time by 3 seconds.  When I rounded the bend heading for the finish line, and saw the clock was at 27:52, I just sprinted the rest of the way.

The race was hard, and I was having to push myself mentally a lot at times.  Especially the 1/4 mile after the half-way mark, when there was a long, slight incline over concrete.  Once I got into the 3rd mile it was alternating between trying to zone out but then pushing myself if I felt pace was lagging.

Training must have been on the good side as I beat my goal and never broke down along the way.  Props to Complete Human Performance and Alex Viada's programming.

Glad I did it.  Way less time than a PL meet!
