Free Tee Shirt Day!

[Bateluer]

Well, to those that can run a 5K in under 26 minutes, roughly.

My last couple of 5Ks were between 22:40 and 23:15, so I'll be adding a new Tee to my collection.

Running is fun.

We'll see if I've recovered enough from Sunday's Marathon to pull that off.

Where is the link?

Oh, and it's not FREE... you still have to work for it.

That's like saying FREE WEIGHT LOSS - run a 5K!

Monetarily free.

I learned something though. When you donate blood, and only eat a cup of Ramen afterwards, you can't run very well the next day.

The first half of the run went rather well, and I was able to maintain a peppy 6:45min/mile pace. After the midpoint turn around, my legs turned into dead weights and I lost all my energy. On the last 1/3 mile, I had to stop to allow a pain in my side to subside. In the end, I got one of my slowest 5K times ever, 24:39.

Its possible running the marathon the week prior had something to contribute to this as well, but I think the blood donation and shoddy 'meal' afterwards had the biggest impact. My vision actually had colored dancing lights in it after I did my customary last 100m sprint.

Edit - I still got a Tee shirt though. Typically, the Tees run out around the 27min mark.

I love that feeling! haha i've just started training sprints again, and after a few 100m runs everything was all blurry and the contrast between light and dark was loads!! interesting experience! :laugh:
