Fastest 5km Split in 20+ Years

After watching yesterday's Winter Olympics coverage, I felt inspired to reach for a personal record...and threw down a 21:37 in a mostly downhill 5km (and perhaps my fastest time on the 6 mile Malaga Cove Plaza orbit). This was the fastest I have run a 5km in over 20 years and an extremely encouraging turn for this marathon training session considering that the L.A. Marathon is exactly one month from Sunday...
