Got really stir crazy today and I saw a 5K on FB that had a start time of 7 am to 6 pm and it struck my curiosity. Basically you could run the race whenever you showed up, chip time. Since I was so late I finished with like 8 minutes to go and I was the last finisher. I was thinking around 22:00 but crossed in 20:34, I was pretty happy. I never ran a 5K solo before and I didn't have my watch for pacing. Plus I haven't run outside in a month lol
Most of the races are "virtual" but I hope if we keep getting restricted that more races adopt this model.
