going backwards again

so, i realized about two weeks ago that i was nowhere near running sub-20 5k pace as i was just a few months ago. tonight, i ran the arlington 911 race for the third consecutive year. this is a great night time race, i run it with a team, and there's all sorts of good food/drink at the end. of course, every year without fail i seem to run relatively poorly in it. now i could blame tonight's race on the hot and humid weather, or the fact that i rolled my ankle mowing the lawn this morning and it still hurt 10 mins before the race started and adrenaline took over. however, i'll just admit i've done a pretty poor job the last month in staying in top shape. i pretty much ran the same exact time as last year, reversing my improving trend. See the race history.

along the lines of not staying in top shape, look at all the crap i ate while in omaha/ny the weeks before the race. given that i ate out for about 6 straight days, this is just the highlights of the calorie fest:

gyro
$3 per slice pizza in omaha, how's that for gourmet
big fajita platter
i think that's like stromboli or something
