Finally some speed! (It's all relative)

Thanks to hurricane/tropical storm Hanna, I got to the gym yesterday.  As usual, I planned on doing an easy 5K.  Normally when I go it's pretty late so there aren't a lot of people there, but today I got there at 3pm.  While it wasn't mobbed, there were a good amount of people there.  Fortunately my favorite treadmill at the very end was available.  Unfortunately there was lovely young lady, two treadmills over who moving at pretty good clip.  I usually don't like to run next to people running fast, I find it screws up both of our paces and it's a little embarrassing.   Anyway, I guess all those miles I've logged are starting to pay off, because I was able to step it up and shaved a minute off of my best 5K time.  

As a side note, there two "old guys" on the other side of her.  They both started out strong, but it was slightly amusing to see the rapid decline as one quickly changed to a very labored jog and the other just decided to walk.
