More miles than I wanted today but I barely beat the 9 minute guy. Snowy, slushy, icy, muddy run up dry creek and along the BST with Collin, James and Nate.

Excited for the 5k tomorrow. Strategy is to take the first mile out hard and hang on for dear life. 5:15 first mile then try to stay below 5:20. The A goal is to break my time of 18:24 last year by two minutes.

It actually seems like (for once) there won't be a headwind on the way back.

You are definitely set up for a 5K PR, even if you walk a little!

Good luck tomorrow. You have definitely put in the work to do it that's for sure.

Thanks guys. It's looking like a nice day so no excuses. I consider my best to be 16:53 which I ran on Jake's tempo loop so slower than that would be quite disappointing. Back in the day, my times were in the 16s so I don't know what my official pr is.
