First of all, it was New Year's Day. The morning after New Year's Eve.

Second of all, I wasn't quite sure how fast I could go or how I would feel. So I decided to find out.

This race had a good crowd great weather for January. I started out slow, around an 8:30, and as I warmed up, picked up the pace, finishing with a 7:40. I was keeping an eye on the HR, and paying attention to how I felt, but I was pretty happy at the finish. I felt something like a runner again. It's a good feeling.
