Make Tracks for the Zoo 5K
Yesterday, I ran the Make Tracks for the Zoo 5K. Sadly, it wasn't actually held in the zoo but rather near the zoo in Forest Park. Still a pretty good course. It was a huge race. I think they said there were 2500 participants - though that includes the run, the walk, and the 1 mile run as well. Still though. Tons of people. Tons of very fast people. I was just pleased that I kept a pretty steady pace throughout. So I passed a ton of people during the second mile - people who started out too fast and just couldn't keep it up. My goal was to just keep a steady pace and run well, which I did/
I ran the race in right around 32:00. Fast for me! But still incredibly slow. I'd like to get under 30:00. Maybe by next year.
I beat these guys though.
And these guys too.
