Running 16:29 [3] 5.0 km (3:18 / km)
shoes: Nike Flyknit Streak pink/yello
PODIUM 5KM : 16:29
Wasn't initially planning on racing today but felt quite good in the morning so thought it would be worth a punt.
Worked really hard throughout, went through the first km in 3:07 which is bang on what I went through last time. Worked through a few runners on the next few laps and had a strong finish. I was deep in the well by the end and a reminder that in order to run this time requires pain and suffering. The 16 min barrier seems a long way away but I've now run 16:28 + 16:29 so, hopefully after this period of stabilisation I will have another period of improvement. I'll try and run a few more of these over the summer - absolutely great races.
