I went out for a 5k this morning in preparation for tomorrow's official race. I purposefully walked at a moderate pace because tomorrow I really want to go for my fastest recorded time.
Anyone who has paid the slightest attention to my posts that mention my speed, realize along with me that this is more a joke than anything else. It is an attempt to best myself-which will be spectacularly easy for 98% of everyone else who entered. That may be a slight exaggeration as 5k's can sometime get slow pokes -like me-so I won't be the only walker. Not that I was the only walker in the longer races either. I have never come in last, but I will absolutely never come in first...unless I am the only one entered.
And actually that is really what I am talking about - besting my own time. That is what every runner attempts to do. Even those elite runners who DO come in first, they are still trying to best their own best time. And tomorrow, that will be me. 60 to go.
