On 8/16 Helena and I participated in the Old Orchard Beach Breakaway 5k.  This went fairly well.  I ended up placing 170th out of 339 finishers.  My time was 25:07.  I was hoping to break the 24 min mark this time around.  The 5k I ran in May was 24:ish, so my pace was a little off.

almost to the finish
