Pushed hard the entire time. Some of the hills hurt. Was a fun local race with a good amount of spectators. I always forget how much 5ks hurt.
Post race
Warm down:

Cheered on finishers, chatted with the Kuper's and then ran home

What limited your ability to perform faster:

Lack of speed work

Event comments:

PRR does a great job at putting on good local races. Good swag (LS tech shirt and ornament).
It would be nice if they changed up the courses though. All of the races that are from RTC are the same course.
