Set a new 5k PR today at the Bohicket Half Marathon/5k. 18:05 was my official time but I think it was closer to 18:10 (I'm 42). I think I had a decent shot at sub 18 if I had someone close to my own speed to chase. 1st and 2nd place were 25 year olds that ran low 16:xx, way out of my league. I caught 3rd place at mile 1 and the watch beeped 5:46. It was a 14-15 year old kid, I told him to make it stick but he fell off soon after. He ended up 19:xx. I basically ran the last 2 miles solo. I've ran a ton of miles this year (for me +2100) and even did some riding (800-1000). Finally convinced myself I'm ready for a marathon, signed up for the Myrtle Beach Marathon first weekend of March. Previous years I've only managed around 1300 miles due to shin splints. Taking time off to heal and riding the bike helped me get through my injuries.
