Rocky River 5 Miler
I got up early this morning to run the Rocky River 5 Miler. It's a small local race I do every year. My goal every year is to come in under 40 minutes. It hasn't happened yet. Although I did get second in my age group this year. Here are my splits:
Mile 1: 7:44
Mile 2: 8:24
Mile 3: 9:12
Mile 4: 8:55
Mile 5: 8:40
Finish Time: 42:58, 8:36 min/mile pace
Mile 1: 7:44

Nice job! We gotta have goals even when they seem out of reach.
wow that's fantastic! and placing is just oh so cool, good job!! :)
what do you use to get your splits? i just bought a garmin and am hoping it will do that for me, if i can just get it figured out!
Hi Neese!
I haven't splurged on a Garmin, yet - I use an Ironman Timex watch, 50 lap counter. It has 3 alarms, a countdown timer, an interval timer, and the regular chronograph. It is just techy enough for me without going overboard.
Small, local races tend to be some of the best! Congrats on the bling!
NICE job!!! :) I have yet to break the 40 minute mark for the Malachi or Turkey Trot...freaking 40:02 at Malachi--damn hill gets me every time! :) Perhaps we can try to break that line sometime together!
Way to bring home some hardware!
Good efforts on your race!
I think you can break 40 minutes.
Hey at least you managed to pick it up a bit the last two miles!! Great job on your race! Apparently it was a good day to take second :-)
Nice job!!! Yeah some of those small local races are pretty fun.
Good job buckeyerunner....so close to donig sub 40. 2nd place is good.
Right on- 2nd ag finish
Congrats on the 2nd..that is awesome! It looks like you were gettting faster there at the end too...you probably just needed another mile to catch first! ;-)
Great work! Something to be darn proud of!
Awesome job!! You're getting very close to your goal!
