Yesterday I got up early before Church and drove to the Muscatine County fairgrounds in West Liberty. I entered in the 5k run along with about 150 other runners. The temps were ideal at 8am and the course was pretty flat and went on streets through the town.
I set a fairly brisk pace on the 1st mile (sub-7 minutes) and heard that my 2-mile time was 14:05, but on my last mile I had to slow down a bit. I finished with 22:04, which was good enough to give me 3rd place in my age group (31st overall).
My time was about 5 seconds slower than my performance in the Hayes Hustle back in April and the race in April had a big incline at the finish. Guess I hadn't completely recovered from my difficult bike ride in Colorado last week.
