good Movie Madness 5K, Manchester 3.1 mi 00:30 09:40 pace
Ran the whole thing -- with the aid of quite a lot of naproxen. Not one of my best 5K times overall, but given my current level of health and conditioning, I'm quite happy with it.

We sure did! Very enjoyable, but no sampling because of the race crowds.
