Week 23, Race 22: Hatfield 5km Series - Race 1

Another 5km race (there will be a few in September!)...tonight was the first in a 3 race series of 5km races in Hatfield. Race HQ is at Affinity Water's offices so much posher than usual including a security guard to show you to the loos for your pre-race toilet trip :-)
The course itself is unexciting, 2 and a bit laps around an industrial estate but it's almost flat and pretty fast. I was very pleased to finish in 28:38 which is my fastest 5km in a very long time, almost 2 minutes faster than Saturday's parkrun and almost 10 minutes faster than my comeback 5km in January (ok, so both these races were off road but even so...)
All in all a very satisfying evening of running! 18 races to go...
