UBC longest day 5k race. Goal was 16:40, but was in great shape so did 16:21. Strategy was to hit the first 1k below 3min, since it's a huge downhill. Then I hoped to keep 3:20 up the hills and on the rest of the course.
Felt good after the fast 1k in 2:58. Passed a bunch of people up the hill to 2k. Was suprised I could push the pace even with the fast start. Got into a nice group at 3k that I stayed with til the end. Finally beat Skarsgard in the sprint.
Mathias ran in a nice time of 16:36, Pat in 17:59, and Louise in 19:36. Nice results today! GPS measured 5.034km with 40m climb.
New PB by 7 seconds, and also new PB in the 3k, 9:41!
