Today was the 4th of 7 races in the 2010 Bucks County 5K series and just 1 week following the 10 mile Broad Street Run in Philadelphia. It was a cool morning and light rain was falling just prior to the start of the race but the sun was shining by the time the race was completed.
I did not achieve a new PR today, finishing in 25:28 (8:12 mile). Considering the course and my performance during the first mile, I was hoping to come in closer to an 8:00 mile. I am determined to hit an 8:00 mile before this series is completed.... 3 more races to go!
In the meantime, I am setting my sights on some future half-marathon races. I am looking at San Francisco in July, Minneapolis in August, Philadelphia in September, and the Outer Banks in North Carolina in November.
Happy trails everyone!
John
