Independence Day 5k
Race report: I finished 2nd n my age group and 18th overall. My splits were 6:51.9, 6:55.6 and 7:06.2 for a 21:32. This is the fastest 5k I have run since turning 50.
Shoe review: The Saucony Fastwitch 8 is the maybe the best Fastwitch ever. It's light, cushioned, and responsive. The only issue I could mention is the tongue, which can fold while putting the shoe on.
