Week 11 - Day 1 Speed Work 5k time trial



Needed to see what it felt like to run 5k at race pace or at least what I believe can be my race pace. Weather was cool and the road wasn't ideal as there was still ice and water. I also take comfort in the fact that this course is not flat as there is a uphill and downhill near the parking lot area where I start. I was wearing my lightest winter wear and my Brooks Cadence which will be my racing shoes at the 1/2 mary distance and lower. Its good to see this progress and I'm getting better at breaking that mental barrier that wants me to slow down.

Equipment worn:
Orange Toque
Hind Base Layer
Patagonia Calipene tights
Adidas winter socks
Brooks Pure Cadence
Gloves
