I missed the 5x1k intervals this week, due to business travel. Still, I ran a pretty good 5k race today in 24:05, felt strong throughout. The first mile was slow due to the number of entrants and lack of corrals for expected finish times, 8:00. Ran the second mile in 7:38, finished as noted above. I am encouraged by the improvement I have seen, I know I'll be cutting it close on the 10k, but, I'm still targeting a sub 50 min effort.
