Park Hall 5k

I ran a 5k race tonight which I've run the previous two years. In 2009 I managed a 22'24 and in 2010 I improved on that a little with a 22'08.

So tonights 21'18 marks a 50 second improvement which over 5k is a decent jump forward, and I'm sure if I'd pushed myself I could have been sub-21. I finished with a sprint and recovered quickly, I just run too much within myself because I'm worried about running out of steam. What I needed to do was pick the pace up say 500m out not 200m and then I'd have been sub-21.

Anyway I'm pleased!
