Oak Park Gobble Gobble Gallup 5K

A nice flat course through Shepherd Park. A decent 5K route, three loops around the park and ice rink. Given that it's also a 5K walk, you never run out of people to pass.

Temp: 42 degrees F
Time: 8:30 AM

Finish: 18:29 (2nd overall) 5:56 per mile pace.

I decided to go out at a comfortable pace, not overextending my ability. I'm not quite sure what the splits were, but I'm comfortable saying that my first mile was the slowest, and the last was the fastest mile. Definitely an improvement over last year's 21:00 finish.
