First race of 2008
Exercise: Did my first (of many) races for 2008 - the Scottsboro, AL Throbbing Heart American Heart Association 5K. Chilly morning, but no wind made for almost ideal racing conditions. After a 2.25 mile warmup (hindsight says this may have been a little too long), I ran the 5K in 19:22, finishing 6th overall, first in my age group and first Master. I started out in sub 19:00 minute pace, but slowed the last mile (combo of fatigue and two big hills). Mile splits were:
1: 6:02.86
2: 6:11 (12:14)
3: 6:35 (18:49)
0.1 : 0:33.07 (19:22)
After the race , I ran the course again in about 23 minutes, getting 8.5 miles in for the day.
