Comments:

I felt disappointed with my time because I had too much left at the end of the race. I was in third most of the race, with some other runners on my heels. My splits were 6:07 (too slow) 12:55 (too slow) and 19:30 (again to slow).

What would you do differently?:

Pushed in harder at the end of the race and try to pace with another runner.

Post race

Warm down:

Did some light streaching. Go some water and yogert.

What limited your ability to perform faster:

Not enough people around to pace with. Have a slight cold.

Event comments:

Not a bad race but not my best. I felt like I could have gone alot faster. I need to do more speed workout and try to lengthen the stride. I plan on doing atleast 3 more 5K's this fall so I am hoping to break 20 mins by the end.
