Columbus Half Marathon/10K/5K

Another race under my belt for the season!

This:

Turned into this:


1st place in my age group, yeehaw!!  I finished in 53:15

The previous 10K race I ran, I completed in 53:07, so I feel my pace has been quite consistent.  However, I noticed that my body felt much better in this 10K.  I felt more elastic (if a person can truly even feel that), and I did not get any cramps or aches/pains.  My breathing was controlled, too.

This was a combined racing event.  A half marathon, my 10K race, and a 5K race all were scheduled on the same course. 

By the way, the dude that took first place overall in the 5K race ran barefoot.  Ouch!
