Thanks! I'll legitimately be excited if I can get under 165 and sustain that number. I've been under 170 a few times over the last five years, including late last year, but 165 has been a pretty hard number for me to sustain.
10k ... on the one hand, it is a check-point on the road to my first half marathon race. I've done these before, I'm comfortable with the distance, it isn't the primary objective. I care more about the half marathon times and my 5k times. But on the other hand, it is my first time racing against a buddy who has blitzed me in runs the past couple of years. I'm looking to beat him in at least one run this year, and I know I've been training harder than him on running/cardio so far. Ditto hills, as my new neighborhood has some while his neck of the woods has virtually none. So I'm hoping for some early bragging rights
