AM - 3.25 Twix. Some very slow easy miles with the dog to start off the morning.

Hurricane Pioneer Days 5K. 16:34

Then over to Hurricane for their nice little 5K. I actually really like this race a lot. It is totally low key; two cans entry fee, no bibs, simple timing, super size candy bar for the winner, donuts and chocolate milk at the end, correct distance - the way races should be, no huge production, just some faster fun running. Didn't run as fast as last year because I wanted to take the opportunity to help my boys who were there work on some packing (even if Jake did miss the start because of his issues). We had a good group through 1 at 5:28 (last year I went 4:58 on this one). A little bit of fall off for a couple guys in the second mile that we could improve and went through at 5:30. Then I pushed a little more and hoped they would all come with me. It strung them out a bit, but they all still put in good efforts. Hit the 3rd at 5:10 (so actually closed at 5 secs faster, but that was because Mitch and Paul were coming after me). Felt very fine and comfortable throughout. Don't know how much quicker I could have gone if I would have really tried to open it up, but I think I could have shaved off a few for those first two miles and been close to last year's time. Cooled back with the boys and yelled at the girls as they finished up. (Adios 376)
