When you're a marathoner and you decide to run a 5k race, weird things can happen. Such as going out too fast, way too fast. In this podcast, I talk about how going out too fast on a 5k race may keep you committed to the pace you did on the first mile. Sometimes peer pressure is the root of the curse of the Cul-de-sac 5k series.

I did my first Spring "training" run with the great folks from Team Incognito. In this podcast, I talk a bit about the training run and share some Memorial Day reflections. Some of the material in the show is from last year's Memorial Day podcast (episode #13). DVDs from the Strolling Jim 40 Mile Ultra are still available. I'll burn you one for free and mail it out on my dime but a $5 donation to Ashland Christian Emergency Services is requested (honor system).
