Wanted to be under 5:00 and I was. 36, 73, 2:29, 3:44, 4:59 Set pace in first lap, got passed by Matt Simonson and two high schoolers around the 400. Re-took second at some point around the 800 or 1200. Never got within striking distance of Matt who ran an even 4:56. Lacked speed or motivation to bring the pace down... In hindsight I was just running conservative to keep under 5:00. I'd like another shot at that distance soon to try and improve another few seconds. I think I'd have run with Matt longer if I'd not had a watch. Still, I had a blast and the Hoppers who ran all had PRs which was very motivating. Next week, I'd like to get back into a grove with a 50 mile week.
