Subject: PR @ my 5k race today!!
Ran in a local 5k today and set a PR by about 2 minutes! My final time was 26:50, and I'm normally 2 minutes higher than that. I'm a newbie runner, but this makes me feel great. 8:39/mile pace is great for me, and I'm thrilled with the progress I've made. My training miles have been going up the past few weeks, which I think helped. Had a GREAT finish kick and ran down and passed the target i picked out who was several folks ahead of me a few hundred yards out. all in all a great time. Now my friend is saying I need to get ready to do a half mary with her in April.....

Good job.

you know- your friend is right.  HM's are really, the perfect race distance.  Something to be proud of, without having to beat your body into a pulp, like a full mary.

Congrats on the PR.

Just a question. I'd like to get my 5k time down to your level. What did you do differently or better to lower your time? Thanks.

Not much feels better than a PR, its confirmation that the training you've been working so hard at is working.

Congratulations!
