It turned out to be more than a 5K, more like a 5.32K or 3.3 miles in 38.45 minutes. And about 30 of those were running! I should do it out on Map My Run to see how fast I was going there, but it might take off some of the buzz. I did 7/2 splits again until until 27 minutes, then I ran for 5 minutes until the big downhill, walked down that, and ran the rest of the way home.
Right hip was sore, that's a new one, but at least the knees were ok. I've got an icepack on my ass. It was so quiet out, I saw like 3 other runners, a few people walking their dogs, and a guy smoking. I hope the weather stays nice enough to run outside, because I think it's way better than inside will be when it's too cold.
OK, just checked, it's 11:46 min mile. But that includes the walking parts.
Registration is opened for the Ras na hEireane and I tried to register last night, but it wouldn't let me for some reason. Hope that's not a sign. Wouldn't it be lame if I actually could run 5K but the damn thing wouldn't let me register?

About Me
- The Lazy Cretins
- I am not an athlete. I mean, really not an athlete. You know how by the time you are in second grade or so you know where you fall in the kickball team choosing order? I knew I was last round, even if a friend was captain. It's OK, I was good at the rest of school. But now it's time to push the boundaries and work on some fitness.
