5 km Waterfront Race

Tuesday 13 September

There had been an amazing hail storm earlier in the day so I wasn't sure I would be doing the race. Fortunately the weather cleared and the race conditions were good. I definitely haven't fully recovered from my efforts on the weekend. My legs felt stiff and heavy and I wanted to keep something in reserve for the half marathon on Sunday so I didn't push too hard. I decided a time of around 31 minutes would be good since that is the kind of pace I'm hoping to sustain on Sunday. I finished in 30:57. There were times when I felt I was getting the style I found on Saturday but I didn't have the concentration required to maintain it throughout the race.
