weee new PB!
Great race! Only thing to complain about was my stomach which was heavy the whole race, and it was really windy, and there was a slight uphill at one point, and a guy clipped my shoe at 1.5k, and...haha jk. It really couldn't have gone any better.
A bit unsure again at the start, but ended up convincing myself to catch up to a pack of 5 or 6 intimidating lions and other track club runners, which was a brilliant idea. Stayed with the pack for a long while, and it was really fun, just like in ski races. I stayed with them as long as I could because I knew it was beneficial mentally and to cut the wind, but I started to slip back along with a few others at around 2.5k. Just hung on for the rest of it with a few other guys around me. There was no 4k marker which was annoying, but I had a pretty good idea of the course.
Started out quite fast, but I think this was a good way to run a 5k, just trying to hold on for the last 2k. Last two splits are averaged.

So what is my pb they'll ask? 16:55, NOT ~17min :P:P I'm cherishing those first two digits. ;)
