NYRR Dash to the Finish 5K - race report

Wrapped up my 9+1 at the Dash to the Finish 5K. Ran a 19:25 / 6:15 pace, which is four seconds off my PR. I felt I ran OK. Would have liked to been able to finish a little stronger. At around the halfway point, I could tell I was going to be close enough to PRing that I would expect to get it  and as a result was pretty bummed about my time. But I like my effort in this race in the context of my year. Perfect weather, crowded field, but not a lot of spectators until the park, which made running down 42nd and up 6th quiet and surreal.
