The feel is just exactly what I've been looking for for so long. About the times, I'll put it this way - I really can't imagine that I WON'T run sub three this fall, but right now it just seems so far away. And it's still 10 min off of my current PR. The only thing I can tell you is that I've been training faster than ever and really focusing on that goal. I'd also like to run under 18 min this fall in a 5K, and under 1:27 in a half, as secondary goals - but the sub 3 what everything is geared around.<br /><br />And yeah, I've had trouble with Google Chrome and Blogger before too - which I don't understand for the reasons you stated. Have a great weekend!Jim ... 50after40https://www.blogger.com/profile/14165153305680378261noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1963402677916553399.post-22368184227491784242014-07-05T08:50:40.522-05:002014-07-05T08:50:40.522-05:00SO impressed, great race.

I've been trying to comment on this since yesterday - for some reason, I've been having issues with opening Blogger pages in Chrome, which makes no sense since they're both Google products! I finally broke out Safari, just to applaud you :)<br />Now, I totally want to give you all the credit in the world for this very well run race and stellar placement. But I'd also like to give a nod to your Kinvaras. Freaking love that shoe. So upset I can't wear them anymore...and honestly, I'm thinking about going back to them if/when I ever get back to running. Even if I do pronate, I just like the feel so much!<br />So, what's this 5k do to your training? I guestimate that a sub-6 pace places you firmly in the under 3 hours category for a marathon, but will you be knocking seconds or minutes off that goal now?
