a goal for tomorrow's race
I said I'd at least try to write a "goals" post about tomorrow's 5k, so here it is, short and sweet.
The first timed 5k I ever ran, at the beginning of my running life back in 2008, was 23:57, which has happily been the slowest 5k I've ever run. My 5k PR is 20:25.
My goal: Run somewhere in between those two times.
Secondary goal: Don't have the first mile be my fastest.
I've decided to wear my Garmin, but I am going to do my darnedest to not look at it. With the way we're running around Harriet, I think there are some tiny rollers in the first mile, and a more significant climb in the second. So my overall race plan goes something like this: ease into the first two, hammer the last. Also: Don't be a baby.
Just for the record, I hate 5ks.
