Changed Plans And Unexpected PR

I was quite disappointed when I got pulled into a last minute meeting on Wednesday that kept me from attending the group run over lunch. I'm hoping to try again in a couple of weeks.

That being said, not attending the group run meant that I had to do my tempo run later that evening. It was very hot and humid and I had just finished eating a large pork chop dinner at the Dallas County Fair Grounds, courtesy of my brother-in-law, Mike, so I didn't expect much out of the run. As it turns out, I ended up having a great run. I didn't notice until logging into Garmin Connect the next day that I had broken my previous 5K PR by 34 seconds (30:54 to 30:20).
