Race day! Work 5k. I gotta do more races sometime, I love the atmosphere
Got first for my age group, second overall. Some under 17yr old high school girl who was very small beat me by about 20-30s. She seemed like a track girl. Some super fit dude was on my ass the entire way, passed me at the last 70y so I gunned it ahead of him at the 40y and finished like 5 seconds ahead like “nah bro, not today”. We fistbumped after
Happy with my time, much better than my practice time. And it was dreadful hot. Leg didn’t hurt bad surprisingly, took a Vicodin I had leftover from surgery though, that helped
If you ain’t first, yer last!

I am active and exercise regularly as do a lot of people, but not many past mid 20s are active to the point of pushing themselves. NY marathon or work 5K -- doesn't matter if you give it your all and you win.
Grats. You deserve to feel proud.
