Sat 6/21 - PM 60 minutes incl. 5k road race in 16:34

Feeling flat as evidenced by the slow time. Not too sure of the accuracy of the course, first mile mark went by in 5:03, never saw mile 2, mile 3 was 15:39. Splits show the overall pattern of the effort regardless of their accuracy, i.e. I wilted a bit as things went along. Some minor inclines the first two miles but nothing overly difficult. All of it irrelevant as there was no competition whatsoever, easiest of easy pickings. As such no motivation to push myself any harder than necessary which was for the best. Piercing sun as things kicked off at 1 pm under a cloudless sky on the longest day of the year, but thankfully not at all humid. Slow 30 minute cooldown, the only gear available.
