Race day today. I haven’t raced since Thanksgiving and have had bad plantar fasciitis for 6 months, no days off, all outside, 100% accountable, 0% excuses! It’s go time!

It’s a 5k and I should be able to break 18, preferably sub 17:30. Should win my old man age group and be top 3 overall. Always depends on who shows up. Last year I was the overall runner up and as a guy in his 40’s was able to outkick a 16 year old, lol.

Well here it is!!! I finished hard like I trained and didn’t take the lead until the last 1/2 mile and my last mile was my fastest!

I went Prefontaine style, if you know you know. “To give anything less than your best is to sacrifice the gift”
