The 6th annual Haddonfield Adrenaline 5k is tomorrow. It's hosted by the
Haddonfield Running Company and tends to draw a large crowd, making it more interesting than the average neighborhood 5k. It also offers over $1,000 in prize money, so the elites tend to come out of the woodwork for this one. When I enter little neighborhood 5k's, I usually stand a chance at placing in my age group. With this race, there isn't a chance in the world. Last year the winner posted a 14:03. The female winner was a 2008 U.S. Olympian. See what I mean? This race is nuts.
I ran it back in 2009 and finished in 21:26, which I wasn't too worried about because it was my first race of the season at that point, and my fastest times are usually run in May.
Tomorrow, I just hope to finish faster than 20:45 which I ran last month at the
Princeton Cupid's Chase 5k.
