6/30- Repeated the 3 mile distance this time on New Lakeshore. Trail ended at 1.4 so I had to improvise to get the full distance. Improved to 28:42 (9:34 pace), which projects a sub-30 5K. Solid gain (MINUS 41) but I was hoping for a little better. Splits were 14:18-14:24 so the pacing was decent but I didn't have much left at the end. Another 3 miles at that pace still seems insurmountable.
If I am to race in San Diego, it will have to be the 5K, not the half marathon. I'm warming up to that idea. If I continue to improve, I could see a respectable showing by mid-August.
