XC 5K Series Begins

The NJ Trail Series Wednesday night XC 5K series started up again last night. Ran 20:30 -- exactly the same time I ran last year sometime in July the one time I actually raced. Probably went out a little too fast and was sucking wind almost the whole way. Hoping I can take 1:00 off of this time by the end of the summer. Will ran 1:10 faster then he did for the 1st race last year even though he wasn't feeling good and had multiple stitches pretty much throughout. He improved by almost 2:00 from his first race to his last last year and I would think something similar might happen this year.
