Your guess is as good as mine

I have no idea what to expect for tomorrow’s 5K. NONE. In the past three years I have gone from being a regular 5K runner to it just being a distance I’ve done once a fall when I’ve let myself get out of shape. Now I am in really good shape – the best in a while – but I know I have so much room for improvement, like losing some of last year’s extra weight. And while things have gone great recently, I haven’t done all that much speedwork … but my training runs overall are faster. So, we’ll see.

Thanks to everyone who left a comment in last night’s entry predicting my time for the race. Check out the post here for the contest details. The predicted times are:

22:20
22:52
22:59
23:10
23:11
23:13
23:21
23:40

All times are within 80 seconds of each other; there were no guesses over 24 minutes. I haven’t had a 5K under that time in nearly three years, but I’m hoping you’re right tomorrow.
