Gobble Gobble Zzzzzz

I’m finding that the trick to running the Turkey Stuffer 5k is not to stuff yourself on turkey the night before. But my stomach always wins those arguments.

Aside from that little belly swelling, sleep inducing mistake in race preparation it all came off pretty well.

I was shooting for 21 minutes or less in this 5k, that’s about a 6:45 mile pace. I ended running a 6:51 pace, with an official time of 21:15.

I can’t say I am thrilled with my performance, but I am happy I ran it and I had a great time.

I’ve been logging  a lot of miles in the past few months, but not a lot of fast miles. That’s somethings I’m gonna have to change if I wanna up my game and hit my new target of a 6 minute mile pace.

No pictures today, but here’s a little humor for anyone experiencing P.T.D.D. (post turkey day depression).
