CARLSBAD 5000 5K RACE



Ran the Carlsbad 5000 in San Diego this (Sunday) morning. Here are the results of my worst 5K time ever...
-bib #1778
-chip time: 25:05
-clock time: 25:21
-overall: 618 out of 1210 total runners
-sex place: 429 out of 637 male runners
-div place: 181 out of 267 division runners
-age grade: 51.4%
-pace: 8:05 min/mile

Don't know what happened... I felt like it was a good race throughout... I totally hauled ass at the end and started off slow and steady. This was the first time I used the Nike+Ipod during a race... I think maybe I should buy a big old timer so that I could see the minutes pass as I run... I listened to a Podcast during the race to change things up... I didn't have my pizza beforehand, but rather a bagel and bananas for breakfast... had one of those Accelerade gels 15 minutes before the race (steroids).

Anyways, still glad that I did it. Now I need to just make sure my scores don't get worse. What is going on!?!
