I'm caught up again!

I have finally got caught up with my blogging, and I am no longer blogging yesterdays runs! Today was a short 30min tempo run. I normally would have done a 45min one, but since Hal has me running a 5k on Sat, I am in a mini-taper. However that did not stop me from going fast. Towards the middle I was was running pretty well, and even posted a 5:54 mile for mile number 3. I think that I am ready for the race. I feel great both in my wind and in my joints. So after tomorrow's recovery run (or rest day if I feel like it) I hope that I can break 20min for the 5k.

BTW the McMillan Running Calculator says that based on me running a 5:54 mile I should be able to run a 5k in 20:23

So considering that I could have done the mile faster than that had I not already run two, I think I can make this goal.

remember to peak in mile 2 and 3..and you will have a fantastic run (I think you will break 20)
