Running a 5K today

Alright, I don't love 5K's, but I am trying to see how high I can get my heart rate. :-) Also, I feel like I am in good shape.

Here are my goals.

1. 22:15- 7:10 pace
2. sub 22:38 (my PR)
3. Finish strong :-)

My race plan is:

1st mile-  7:15-7:20
2nd mile- 7:10
3rd mile- sub 7 or as close to 7 as possible

It was also rainy and windy so we will see! Wish me luck!

Going for Boston 2017

Alright, well I decided not to give up on that sub-3:40. I know I have it in me and I want to try again! I decided to sign up for the Newport Marathon on June 4th. It is 13 weeks away. I feel like that is enough time to even get faster! I am still debating exactly what schedule to follow, but I believe I will do track work and tempo work Tuesdays and Thursdays. My long run pacing will practice negative splits. I am excited to do this!
