waiting for the starting gun

the spring 5k season starts bright and early tomorrow morning at 9am with the clean air run. there will be tons of hippies. i could care less about the clean air, i just want to run. i'm not as hill-climbing strong as i was last year but i'm probably consistently faster over 2-3 miles this year.

i had to dump the broad street run 10 miler for this year. instead i will try my hand at avenging my getting destroyed last year with 31:02. i had targeted the bsr at the end of last year but it didn't come together health-wise for me until two months ago. and it was much safer to focus on the spring 5k season than to push myself and potentially over-train for the bsr. i am still targeting a half-marathon in the fall though.

here's to trying to best my personal 5k record of 26:48 tomorrow!
