I won the Carlisle 5k today for the second year. I was really happy with how the race went and it wasnt easy. Another guy gave me a good race and I didnt pass him until around 2 miles in. I didnt think I'd ever get him but I did and I feel I got tough in the middle of the race to make that move. 17:31 is about a minute off what I ran at Carlisle last year, but I was still happy with it given the heat and humidity plus coming off the knee problems. I think I won today because of a good second mile. My splits were roughly 5:44, 5:23, and 5:43, with about a 41 second final 200. I think that the 2nd mile is short and it is definitely downhill, but I still opened it up during that mile.
