5K race in Enfield, CT, not quite flat but no hill more than 20 feet climb. Good effort, happy with time, right about what I was shooting for. Splits -- 6:34, 6:31, 6:34, 32. Haven't raced much in the last few years and I have to relearn what pace/effort I can sustain. With a mile or so to go I was wondering if I was going to fade, then finished with perhaps a little too much left in the tank. Hard to know for sure. And I forgot my heart monitor, so no data other than perceptions.
Nice day, upper 30s, ran in shorts.

Warm-up at a decent pace, timed it about right, finished with about 5 minutes to go to the start.

Cool-down, went down by the Conn. River, lots of geese and ducks.
