Comments:

After several months of all cycling (and some basketball), I was looking to test my 5k running fitness. Last month's 10k hurt but was a good race considering I haven't been run training at all.

So today I was pushing to beat 23:00, looking for a new baseline 5k (I PR'd back in 2002 with a 21:50). Instead, I cruised to a new PR!

See http://www.doitsports.com/newresults3/client/19275_26358_2007.htmlfor official results.
What would you do differently?:

Push harder on last 500 meters! I finished with some juice left.

Thanks.

As you may have noticed, I moved to Austin in 2006.

Hitting the sprints, intervals, and hills on the cycle has blasted through what seems like a 10 year plateau of fitness. My 2004 and 2005 times were in the 24:00 range, and now I find myself at 41 years old under 23:00!

I'm doing a Sprint Tri in September, we'll see just how Tri-fast I am.
