17:27, 2nd
The RI State Police 5k is one of my favorites. I obviously love running 5ks, Gansett, a WTAC Team Event, and the post race atmosphere.
So in honor of the NFL Draft and general disdain in my own performance, I'm going to describe my race in a Belichickian fashion.
"It is what it is"
There are lots of things I can improve upon.
Mile splits were 5:18, 5:39, 5:38.
How I felt: Slow, sluggish, and struggling. Felt like I was being hunting, instead of being the hunter.
Still wanted to compete but didn't have any extra gears. Still happy I ran the race-just want to do better. I'm hoping good running health (still not where I'd like to be) and training will help me in the future.
Highlights: Big PR for Shara at 19:18, Gazelle ran a strong 18:04 and put himself in good position to get back under 18 at any time, and I thoroughly enjoyed the two cups of ice cream I ate post race. This race still remains one of my favorites. Sorry to see Garv have to sit this out with a hip issue.
