Finally a sub 8min/mi

3.11 mi - 24:30 / 7:52 pace
Dang, this is hurting. Legs tight, lungs breathing. Is this really any fun?! :-D Of course it is!

The only problem is I am not digging running on the streets all of the time. Both for the hard pavement and secondly for the traffic fumes. Yuck!

Having such a relative hard time at this 5k, made me worried about the 10k race. I think earlier in the morning, cooler, in another week, and in a race setting, I may be able to do it, but it is going to be tough. So quick to try and race after such a long layoff. But that is why I signed up for the 10k...had to have a tough goal!
