That's right. Apparently you just have to dangle the promise of pizza at the end of a race & I'm gonna do a PR. Here's the breakdown:
Mile 1: 9:06
Mile 2: 9:07
Mile 3: 8:44(could smell the pizza..It was the proverbial carrot on a stick)
Mile .1: 1:01(was knockin' peeps outta my way to GET to the pizza..;-))..(sorry M,beer just doesn't do it for me but hey whateva' works for you,go for it!)
Finish time was 28:00. Over a minute faster than my previous week's time. How ya like me now?..lol AND,it was a good 10 degrees warmer(about 95 at the 7:00 race time compared to the mid-80's of the past 2 races).
Last night marks the last in this series & it's going to be my last race this summer. Definitely looking forward to building up distance & working on my speed in the relative comfort of the treadmill when it's above 90 outside. I may do a winter race(depending on my finances) but this is it until I start training for the 10k(held next year). Hope everyone is staying cool & catch ya on the flip side!

YAY for the PR!! Woot!! I'd pee myself if I could do a 5K in 28mins. Good job.
Interesting that you aren't wearing these shoes because you over-pronate. I had been wearing shoes for over-pronating, but I don't (so those other ones were bad for me)! It's really nice to be in the right kind of shoes, don't you think?
28 is AWESOME!!!
Thats like 2 miles for me!! lol
I cna't wait to get in teh low 11's again & tehn teh high 10's.
those are my goals, I dont' wanna get too gready! :o) yet :O)
Woo Hoo! Congrats! (I go faster for pizza too:)
Nice! Whatever motivates you, huh? Guess next race you need to convince someone to have a pizza at the finish line for you. :) Nice PR!
YEAH for PR and Pizza!!!! SWEET!!!!
Hey, you beat my 5K time! I was hoping for a sub 30 and did it in about 29.57!!
You've been gone. I've been done. I hope you're doing well! Did you run for turkey last weekend too (OK, I did a turkey trot, but it had more to do with the apple cider, tiramisu, pumpkin pie, chocolate-hazelnut mousse and bread pudding than the bird)? And how's the 10K training going?
