Event comments:

Did this w/ my brother in law who is just starting a workout/run program. It's 5 minutes from his house and is actually my alma mater, St. Thomas Aquinas College. Just wanted to get some speed work in cuz I really haven't done any. Small race, we had fun. BIL went out a little to fast to get some open space. Passed him right b4 the 1 mile marker. Clock said 7:05 - fast for me. 14:25 at mile 2. I wasn't feeling great. Just tried to hold on for the last mile. Tried to catch a couple ahead of me but just had no kick. Turns out she was a former track star and coach. No wonder she made it look so easy. That made me fell a little better too! Overall happy given I've done no speedwork. I figure 7 min miles are doable at this distance if i trian for it. Had fun w/ BIL, nice weather and $20 to my old school's athletic scholarship fund . Glad I did it.

Nice work, Mark!

I'm with you... enough of the rain/cold/... But I guess it is more incentive to run faster.

Wow nice fast pace...leaves me in the dust for sure.  Cool running against your BIL...so you laid some smack on him, but watch out for payback if he gets faster!

no,no,no. meant passed him in the sense that he had just gone out to fast... I was happy to run w/ him. He just faded after that quick start. Though he does often bring up his old track days so yeah, it was kinda nice beating him
