Used the bathroom, and kept warming up with back/forth strides then high knees while waiting with the fam in wave 3.<br /><br />Ran out at a moderate pace dodging walkers and strollers. Once we were on the street the cold air really hit my lungs. Listened to music nearly the whole time. Mile 2 was my slowest but still kept it under 15min/mi (my goal pace). Ran much more than walked in the last mile, and had enough left in the tank to push a little harder the last quarter mile to the finish where I hit my highest heartrate of the race.<br /><br />Pretty happy with a sub-45 in sub-40F temperatures, and a solid improvement after last year\u2019s walk/jog which itself was only ~3 months after recovering from a cardio-destroying illness.<br /><br />Considering what to race next, thinking a trail race in December.<br /><br />See also: <a href=\"https://www.spartanturkeytrot.com/\">https://www.spartanturkeytrot.com/</a><br /><br />#<span class=\"p-category\">turkeyTrot2024</span><br /><br />Previously:<br />* <a href=\"https://tantek.com/2022/329/t1/spartan-turkey-trot-5k\">https://tantek.com/2022/329/t1/spartan-turkey-trot-5k</a>"
