5K race at Idlewild Park in Kentucky... first of the year.
30:06, 9:43 pace.
It was an incredibly difficult course. The most difficult 5K I've ever done by a long stretch. So it is hard to gauge the physical fitness I've gained recently from looking at this 5K time. Not really fair to myself to do that. This course was more what one would do for a hill workout! Not to mention it was the hottest it's been this year and probably 90% of the course was in the sun. All of those things considered, I think our time of 30:06 was excellent!
Casey - I have a couple of training ideas for helping out both of our cardiovascular fitness while running. I know we both struggled with that more than our legs.
The disc golf game after the 5K is not to be counted out as a good extension of exercise for the day. The course is quite challenging: trees for the discs and terrain for the legs. We only played 9 holes, but that was a good amount for me at least.

I am open to whatever suggestions you have to speed us up and make us better. Sorry you can't make your group ride tonight, that's poopy.
