Intentional 10k

inspired by eric's olympiad of athletic events and brian's ceremonious inspirational speech, i decided to run a more intentional 10K, or rather, two 5Ks. same route as last time, out to Glencoe and back. the main difference was in pacing and not taking walk breaks during the main stretches. this in exchange for a few minutes in between 5k segments.

run: glencoe loop
out (5k): 26:22
back (5k): 25:55

total time (10k): 52:17

+/-: about three minutes faster, but not really accurate because of rest between halves.

notes: new shoes feel good, but definitely need some breaking in. drank water all afternoon, knowing that i wanted to run tonight, that helped.
