Hit my goal of a sub-25 minute 5k. Finished it in about 23 minutes. Overall did 3.25 miles at a 7:55 clip. Sometimes impending rain is the best motivation to keep running.

I finally picked up a new pair of running shoes and am giving a barefoot pair a shot. Went with the Merrell Trail Glove. First run this afternoon in them was great. Related protip, don’t go 14 months between running shoe purchases.
Automattic’s WordPress 5K
Just got back from a 5K run for Automattic’s World Wide WordPress 5K. The weather wasn’t as nice as yesterday, the last mile was in sprinkling rain, but it was still a good workout.
Like Nick mentions, it’d be cool to set up a counter next year to see how much distance people log around the world. That combined with a map of where people are running, walking, biking, or swimming their 5K would be a cool visualization of the WordPress community in action.
