Contrary to my post earlier today, I didn't jog the race with my son, as he ran with my wife. I ran it myself, although I hesitate to say I raced it.
Warming up, my knee was sore, and I entertained the idea of not running, but figured it would feel better once I was running, and it did.
I finished in 24:22, not my slowest ever 5K, but pretty slow. Looking back, I ran the same course in 19:39 in 2002. I did my typical a-bit-too-fast 1st mile, then ran an 8:03 2nd mile over the hilly mile of the course. From my Garmin .
It was a nice day to run, and the knee didn't really bother me. I had an average heart rate of 166, so I wasn't taking it easy; just not in very good shape...
