Weather for race was perfect.
Warmed up 2+ miles.
Race started with 5k but we started 200 meters behind them so first mile was zig zag hell. I did manage to catch first 5-k guy before mile mark, 5:05.
Caught the lead bikers, but just before 2 they turned left and I had to go right. Mile 2 in 5:15, felt comfy.
Went to a turn around cone that was on side of road, so pretty much had to come to dead stop and start again. Got back to intersection and had to deal with 5-k runners again.
Mile 3, 5:22.
Mile 4 I just tried not to get lost and stopped at multiple intersections to ask for directions. 5:41.
Mile 5 I knew where I was and picked it back up to 5:23.
First half of mile 6 again trying not to get lost, hammered the rest of the way in.
Mile 6 slow, 5:35, but second half of that mile at 5:05 pace. last .22, 59 seconds.
New marathon shoes are awesome, just not for 10-k, a little heavy. the extra cushioning will be great for marathon.
Overall time of 33:25.
3 mile cooldown.
