Super Bowl 5K

Today was the Playmakers Super Bowl 5K. It was freaking cold and a little sloppy from the snow the night before. There were a couple of hundred people which made it fun, although I have to admit that I am a little bored by 5k’s. Why aren’t there more 10K’s out there?

The race was pretty good although not the fastest I've very run. But the roads were sloppy, I had new inserts in my shoes and I knew I was going to run some extra mileage after the race.

After the race I tacked on another 3 miles to bring the total up to 6 for the day. The distance was not a problem at all but then again I haven’t run in a week.

I’m sort of in limbo this week without a real plan. I signed up to get a custom 12 week training program to prepare for Indy from McMillan Running but haven’t seen it yet. Plus I think it will actually start next week. I guess I’ll just try to get 25 miles in this week and some weight lifting. Maybe 5 on Tues/Wed/Thurs and 12 this weekend. Well’s see how it goes.

3.1 miles/25:05/Avg 8:05 (SuperBowl 5K)
