Complete a 5K in less than 26 minutes

Despite my injured calf which continued to cramp up horribly before the race and even during the race, I still managed to surprise myself with a personal record time of 25:46! I’ve been running again for about 2 months, so this is quite an accomplishment in a short amount of time. I’m very optimistic that if I am able to continue running I’ll be able to get even faster!

In April 2003, I completed my fastest 5K as an adult with a time of 27:00 (even though the clock said 26:59 when i was passing the finish line!). I want to get back in shape and crush that record by at least a minute!
