So this past weekend, I ran the Bunny Hop 5K in my hometown. I was planning on running it pretty easy. However, a funny thing happened on Saturday morning. I did not run it easy. At the same time I didn't run it very hard either. It was a pretty flat course and since it was so small (like 76 runners small) the course was not crowded. It did seem to wind back and forth a bit which was annoying, but doable. Wasn't trying super hard, so imagine my surprise when I passed the 1 mile mark in about 8 minutes. Once I saw that, I didn't try to push myself too much, just kept a steady pace. Felt pretty good for the entire time. I wouldn't say it was very easy, but I definitely wasn't trying crazy hard.
Finishing time: 24:31, pace: 7:54
New PR by 2 minutes, 19 seconds. Yay!
