Not a lot to say about this race. It was my first 5k on roads since last year. I was nervous and I tried not to think about the race at all. Whenever I did think about the race I would get this overwhelming surge throughout my body, it felt like electricity pulsating through me. Nerves.
I ran a four mile easy warm-up. I lined up. When the gun sounded I took off. I ran as steady as I could, I raced somewhat well. I finished in 22:20 which is a 5k PR for me even if by only 3 seconds. I'll take it. I was also 3rd Female Overall which is the first time I've ever placed top 3 overall in a road race.
It was a good race, lots of great runners and volunteers out there and I was glad to be a part of it.
