Comments:

Run was good went out good, somehow we managed a false start. Everyone had to go back to the start line. I tried to keep a pace of around 8min/mile for the first mile. Ran with my dad the entire way until we got to about 1/2 mile left and it was a steep downhill. He just walked away from me, I couldn't get the legs moving anymore.
What would you do differently?:

Work on leg turnover. I am pretty happy, I was shooting for a sub 25min and didn't quite get there but this is the first 5k i have run all year.
