5K - done early

Hit the 5K early since I knew it would be hot out. I mapped out a 3.1 route and went for it. I came in at 25:35. I was happy with it since I had run that same route 2 weeks ago and was a minute 1/2 slower then. In comparison to my treadmill 5K it is 2 minutes slower, but the hill gradient is different. I find that it's easier to push myself on a treadmill by just pressing the buttons, rather than forcing myself to pick up speed. Overall, the legs felt good...it was just difficult breathing-just plain old hot..my face is beat red, still after 45 minutes.

  1. I have the same feeling on the treadmill. I can just oush the button and go a little faster. Nice job considering the heat/humidity today.
