Running on velvet – 5km, Personal best time! Knarvikmila 2006
September 3, 2006
I competed today at the 5km, in in one the biggest running events in Norway called Knarvikmila, that had a record high of 6000 people that competed this year. The race started with a countdown “3, 2, 1, BANG!” and at the same moment the gun went of it started to rain badly. But I felt very good, no injuries etc. It were like running on velvet.
But the running course were a bit strange as it were going up and down hills all the time. I really tough I would get a bad time because of it, but when arriving at the stadium and crossing the finishing line I were surprised that I had got a new personal best time of 22 min and 8 sec. An improvement of 39 seconds since my last 5km run! Yahooo!!

Congratulations on your new personal record! 22:08 is a very respectable time for a 5k, especially on a hilly course.
