Cold and blustery today up by the beach in Manasquan for the Fool's Run 5k. Would have been perfect without the wind.
I went through the first mile a little slower than planned, 5:40, but that felt right for today. The second mile, a lot of which was into the wind along the beachfront, 5:46. After the first mile or so I was solo, nobody to draft on, so I had to push alone. The last 1.1 was 6:05, which is about 5:32 pace, which means my last mile was probably my fastest. I felt strong at the finish, 17:31, about 65sec fastest than my previous best. Overall average pace was 5:39, good for 5th overall and first in my age group. Short warmup and cool down round the day off to 4 miles.
