Congrats! Look for smaller venue races. I did a 5K a few weeks back and it was so small I got 1st in the 40-49 Male age group AND 3rd overall finisher w/the unlikely award winning time of 21:45. It is a great feeling, isn't it.
Congrats to you, too!
Also, bad weather is your friend. I got 3rd masters female in a 10k because it was cold and rainy that day so not many people showed up. My time wasn't even that great at 54:29. The top master's females will typically get a 46 minute time in this race. That was my first podium finish and I didn't even stick around for the awards ceremony. (lesson learned! ) |
