So the race last night was of course very slow. 18:13 slow. my second 5k in a row over 18 min lol(the last one was in march). It went relatively according to plan for the first 2 miles and then the last mile was slow. apporx 6:06 slow. its funny how the lap splits for me can sometimes drop off a table esp in a 5k(or 3k for that matter). They were approx 88,86,84,83,85,83,85,87,92,93,93,87,43. So the first 2 miles were actually ahead of pace and the last mile was stinky.
I was a little grumpy given that i ran 1559 2+ years ago and 1638 at this race last year. But not that grumpy. I was writing in my race log and saw how few races i had run in the last year with basically none of them under 6:00 pace by any real margin. So no worries i will get it back just takes time. Practice at racing too.
Most importantly my foot seems to be transforming. The PF continues to slowly improve. The bone spur on the left heel is again a/the primary source of problems. Hopefully the tendons/nerves will continue to stretch out like the right one did. It is sore today but not unrunnably so i will get out for an easy 4-6 miles after registration tonight.
