The official times for the 5K haven’t been posted yet, but here’s a low resolution video that Mike took. I’m the one in the long-sleeved gray shirt.
I started and stopped my stopwatch correctly this time, and it said it took me 37:15 minutes to complete the race, which is 3 whole minutes longer than my best time.
It just goes to show you that you can’t cheat physics. If you want a good finish time, you have to put in the training time. There’s no way around it.

Ironically, this race would have earned me an A in my jogging class so long ago, but it’s not good enough for me. I’m racing again this August. We’ll have to see if I do better when I train.

Hey Laura, good for you! You may not have beat your 2004 model but I am sure you know how much better you can run if you are doing it regularly.
I have not run much at all in the last couple of years as my knees seem to kill me after a couple of weeks o training so I really appreiate what a feat it is to get that race run!
