3k time trial with Alex, Anna, and Brendan. Giacomo was planning on coming, but texted me that he had spent too much time packing for home to show up. This was a little unfortunate, as I had no one off of whom to rabbit. Giacomo is over a minute faster than I am, so it's not clear how much help he would have been.
The result is disappointing, though not that far behind my 10:31 PR. The first 600 felt easy, but I started falling off the pace after the first km. I did far better holding pace
at my previous effort; I suppose I could be out of practice. A very speedy girl was doing an interval workout while we ran our 3k, and cruised past me once or twice.
Despite this result, I'm hopeful that I can run sub 10 before the end of the year.
