5k in Mind

There are two upcoming Arizona Road race 5k events in July that I ought to enter, so today I aimed at that sort of run, doing my shorter 3 mile or so loop around Chaparral Lake (1 3/4 times) and going at a faster clip than my 6 mile runs.

I may have accomplished that for 80% of the route, boy was I sluggish. It was not until the last mile where the normal, “I Feel Like I Can Run Forever” buzz came in. Nice to know it was there.
