Another 5k race (personal record)

I participated in another 5k race last week, achieving a PR (which is known in runner's terms as a new personal record. I ran 3.1 miles in 21 minutes and 12 seconds, which averages out to a 6 minutes and 49 second per mile pace. I was happy with the result and while continuing my training I should be able to improve on that time even further. My ultimate goal is to run the race under 20 minutes. I finished in 22nd out of 167 male runners.

NHL Playoffs

The finals are going on right now in professional ice hockey in North America. To win the Stanley Cup, one team needs to be the first to win 4 games. The Vancouver Canucks (a Canadian team) are leading The Boston Bruins 2 games to 0. The two games so far have been very exciting, physical and full of skillful hockey. The games can be seen on channel 4 (NBC) and game 3 is tonight (Monday 6/6) and game 4 is Wednesday the 8th.

5k results

A 5k race means runners must run 5,000 meters which is equal to 3.1 miles. On Wednesday I ran a 5k trail race and my results can be found on this webpage https://spreadsheets.google.com/ccc?key=0AicDo8QO8h6gdGYzalowdm1sSUV1WVdZRU9jaEVXcEE&hl=en#gid=7. I finished #10 out of 40+ runners, but would still like to improve on my time in the coming weeks and months (make sure when you look at the results you click to week #7 on the bottom of the spreadsheet and you will find me at #10). Improving my time would take further training and more experience as I improve my racing strategy.

Thank you for reading,
