With the lack luster training and no recent 5K races I had no idea what to expect for this race.  I figured a 7:30 pace would be about right for me and I would be happy with that or anything better.  It was a perfect day for running right up until the gun went off.  At that point the rain, which had been holding off so well, finally started fall and it wasn't a spring shower it was SGM 2008 all over again.  I was soaked from head to toe and it poured the entire race.  Other than the rain and the very overcrowded start (should have fought my way closer to the front) I enjoyed the race and am satisfied with the results.  It gives me an idea of where I am fitness wise and also assures me than I can still run faster than I thought I capable.  Ran a mile or so for warm-up and cool down.
