Tonight was the 5k road race. I didn't feel like I killed myself, but I was glad when it was over. I ran about exactly what I thought I would, which was good enough for third place in my age group and 17th overall out of a few hundred runners. Last year, I ran the same race in 20:22. While the last few weeks have been unusually light training (and heavy travelling), I am not progressing as I hoped. The left thigh muscle/tendon problem was evident from early in the run, and feels like it did five months ago. I don't know what to do about it.
The Macmillan calculator converts this 5k time into a 6:10 mile. I have to solve this muscle problem so I can push harder.
