Before the drinking could commence I headed up to Holmes middle school for the virtual Tortoise & Hare 5k. The goal was to break 20 and I accomplished that, running 19:19. Mile splits were 6:14, 6:13, and 6:09. Pretty happy with the result. I had thought I was in shape to run sub 90 at Platte River, and I think this shows I at least had a shot at that.
The race had 418 finishers including runners from Arizona, California, Texas, Hawaii, Washington, Great Britain, (including this guy), Ireland, New Zeland, and Slovakia.
Ran the 5k shirtless. 70F and sunny. Woke up today with several inches of snow on the ground.

This guy also got Carys and Jana (another Great Britain and the Slovakian, both of whom work in the same labs as me) to run this. Probably could have got a couple more. Cheers for the heads up about these runs, though.
Next one is the monthly Nielsen two miler on May 2.
