New Hamburg Classic Race: 5k

Ran my first New Hamburg Classic today in torrential rain. By the time I got to 3k I couldn't see anything because my glasses were fogged up. Still, considering I don't do any running training and I haven't run for about a month I didn't do too badly. I finished 23rd overall, I was the 20th fastest man, and I was 11th in my age category (20+). I guess I'm not in the "Masters" age category yet!

My time was 25:51, which is some way off my best for 5k, but the New Hamburg course is considerably more challenging than the Run for the Cure 5k, which is much flatter.
