I ran a 10K @ a local Summer Festival. Official time was 55:55. Comes out to a 9:00 minute pace.

Started out a little too slow and after we ran across a bridge that crosses the Ohio river and back into Kentucky I was pooped. I passed several people going up the bridge and maintained my pace on the way down,"arched bridge".

I have been across that bridge many times and knew it would be steep, but it seem to get longer and longer with every stride. It came just before mile 5. I managed to maintain my pace I had before the bridge but the big kick I had planned for the last mile just wasn't there.

It was a fun race and afterward I took in the car show and all the booths that were set up.

Total running and walking for the day 9.5 miles.
