The race was actually kind of cold, but was perfect for running (Garmin says it was 61) I wore a tank and was pretty cold waiting for the race to start but good once I got going.
I love Jon and I bib numbers, I believe this going to be an on going theme. Me? with a relatively low bib number... Jon with an "I just signed up today" bib number. :) He started his training for the BAA 10k yesterday though so it will be fun getting him training for a bigger race.
Anyway... I got my goal of getting all my miles under 8 minute miles in an 5k (kind of)... it didn't end up being a PR but I wasn't really going for that anyway. I was just happy I got all my miles under 8 minutes according to my Garmin. However, according the the race results it was an 8 minute mile pace because I had to tie my shoe in the middle of the race, and I stopped by watch. DARN. So its official that I got my goal in my own books, but not in the books for an official race time. I will get it by the end of this summer.... stupid shoes.
