Event: [Cancelled] QOC Little Bennett
 

PVTC Cranberry Crawl 5k - 3rd overall, 2nd M40-49. Eerily close to my total time for the 5x1000m workout three days previously. Race atmosphere plus not having to accelerate from zero 4 times during the race is worth more compared to getting to rest 4 times than I would have thought. Pleased, obviously, to see 5K race times dropping, as they ought to given how many I've raced recently plus moderately regular attendance at track workouts. Though it seems unlikely that my SOME Trot for Hunger 5K time from last year is under any threat - unlikely I'll speed up by 48 seconds by Thursday - at least I can expect to more or less match my time of 2 years ago if I don't hurt myself between here and the start line. That's assuming I'm right to think that my complaining hamstrings, particularly the right again, though I didn't fall or do anything else specially nasty to it this time, in the aftermath of this race are going to be no issue by then. As of Sunday afternoon, that seems like a good bet.

Keg was racewalking the 5K. Yelled a greeting when we passed each other after I turned around, then we talked for a few minutes after she finished. Apparently she is hip-deep, at least, in long-deferred home maintenance.

Feeling lazy - this is my warmup and cooldown for the Cardozo Crawlers workout logged as though it were all one run, despite differing intensity.

The workout was 5x1000m with 200m jogging plus some waiting for slower people and milling about drinking and whatnot between reps.
