Event: Humbug Bustle 5k
 

My traditional Humbug Bustle 5K complete with traditional schizophrenic weather. There have been years when it was 70, years when it was below freezing, and sometimes rain. This year, 50ish and raining but some parts of the trail still had invisible icy spots (on the light colored gravel vs the darker pavement or gravel).

Pushed well for the first half, getting to the turnaround ~15:30 or so, but knew I couldn't hang at that pace on the way back. Saw all 4 Rileys and was directly behind Oriana at the turnaround, but she pulled away quickly as I tired on the return.

Waiting for official time for results, but looks ~4 minutes slower than last year on same course. I have a lot of work to come back from the physical problems of the last ~9 months. My time on this was 27:29 four years ago :-(
