Faster than a Speeding Enoch

Posted by enochfreeman on August 10, 2009

As I rounded the corner for the finish line, I mustered every ounce of energy I had and took off at an all out sprint. I blew past the last water stop and came to another corner. And then another corner. And another… HOLY COW! Where’s the finish line!

By the time I came to the hill that led to the “actual” finish line, I was ready to pass out. I had done my sprint to the finish about a mile too soon. How cliche.

Anyway, the Y Not Run race was a good time this weekend. I did manage to set  a new personal record for my 10k, 57:11. Hey! Stop laughing! That’s pretty good for me!

  • Distance: 10k
  • Time: 57:11
  • Pace: 9:13/mi
  • Weekly Mileage Total: 26 mi

Oh, and I have pictures:
