Jason’s Run

Ran a credible 5K in Hillsborough Sunday morning of 19:22. It was my first 5K effort in quite a while, and I had a little knowledge of my aerobic fitness going in. Thankfully, Jason, Rudish of Hillsborough, a guy I formally coached and is now an assistant coach at Hillsborough, guided me through the run. It was comfortable enough, but my legs were a little heavy from a speed workout I did on the cinders two days ago. I would rank my aerobic fitness at about a B. I will need to get some decent mileage in during the next month to be prepared for the Masters 5K nationals in Boca Raton on October 7. I will be starting a Shore AC autumn 5K series in the middle of September. That should give me a few races to prepare for October. All in all my body feels pretty good and there are no injuries and I am happy to be running, and competing at the ripe old age of 80.
