Top-10 5K times since my comeback.

1. 19:02 - Polka Pace Race, 2007
2. 19:25 (twice) - Scholastic Challenge and Jingle Bell Run, 2007
4. 19:31 - I CARE for Residents, 2008 (winna!)
5. 19:35 - Polka Pace Race, 2006 (1:08 PB at the time, from 20:43)
6. 19:45 - Jingle Bell Run, 2006
7. 19:47 - Premier Bank, 2007
8. 19:54 - Scholastic Challenge, 2008 (out-sprinted a 12 year old, ALMOST vomited)
9. 19:57 - Premier Bank, 2008
10. 20:12 - Run For Hungry Children, 2008 (vomited)

It will be a good season if I can drop under 20:00 a few more times to get that 20:12 out of my top-10. I will also be happy if I can get to 100% and at least put a scare into that #1 time. This season has been so up-and-down. At least my times have been consistent.

That is a nice list of times. Throwing the 20:12 out would be nice. Can't you taste that sub 19:00 minute barrier? The Polka could be the place to try for 08!

I can taste sub-19:00. After my 19:02 I kicked myself for not going with Joel after he passed me at the two mile mark as he ran 18:52. When he went by I said, "He's going under 19:00, stay with him!" I didn't though and came up short.

The PPR will definitely knock that 20+ out of the top 10 list.

Hopefully. I'd like it to supplant the 19:02. Are you back? Welcome home!
