I warmed up with Ethan and Conner inside the rec center a mile then we chilled inside until 5 min before the race because it was so dang cold and rainy. The race started and it was annoying because the 10k runners started about 50 meters in front of the 5kers (don't ask why because I don't know). So I passed all of them and there were some 5kers and 2 10kers infront of me. The first mile was into the wind and rain. The second was unbeleivably slow but it was up hill but it was still slow. Then the third mile was actually good 5:35 and the last 400 was in a 1:08(this was after mile 3) so I felt good about that. I took second which was alright but I could have won if my legs weren't so tired.
