This was a pretty run in mid-July near Lake Phalen to raise money for refugees. The DJing and pre-race food were solid, and looking back, it was a nice course that ran next to the lake for pretty much all course. Sadly, it was the worst time I have ever gotten in a 5k despite having run since 2012, because I didn’t run all summer AND I overstretched. Add that to a nice sunny mid-July day and lake-effect wind. But don’t let that stop you! Objectively, it was a nice lake race. I just nearly died because I didn’t train all summer.
