It had to happen sooner or later - my streak of 4 consecutive races with an improvement in my race time ended. Actually, that is putting it nicely. To put it bluntly, I crashed and burned. The Commit To Be Fit 5K started out well - the crowd was energetic and the temperature (64 degrees) was cooler than forecast. Then I ran a 26:10, over 4 minutes slower than the previous week (ouch!). What happened? I won't bore you with the details but I identified multiple factors which contributed to my less than stellar performance. The good news is that I still have 21 races to go in The 31 Initiative, beginning this week with the JAKESTRONG 5K in Powell, Ohio.
I booked my 15th race today. On June 9, I will run the Lyndsey and Kyle 5K in Dublin, Ohio. Race details can be found here.
I'm 1/3(!) of the way through The 31 Initiative. Thanks again to everyone who has donated to this cause. I can't express how much it means to me.
