5km Road Runners

Saturday was the 2nd of the 5km Cairns Road Runners races. I was hoping to crack 20.30 but the race was run in heat that was 3º hotter then 2weeks ago and the wind was quite gusty. I ran a very different race then last time and went out a little bit slower and the middle section of the run I tried to slow down a bit as well. Come the end of the race I thought I would have a bit left in the tank but it wasn't the case - I was stuffed. The end result - 20.51 and 10seconds slower then the last 5km race. I was pretty disappointed by it but after the race most people I spoke to agreed that it was a much more difficult run - so I tried not to let it get me down. I'm just going to have to accept that every time I run I'm not going to run a PB. Having said that though there is one more 5km run and I really want to crack 20.30.

Training week has been a little slack - work is pretty hectic at the moment and the last thing I feel like doing is training.
