I have made this mistake due to inexperience in my first 10K race after having run a 5K and a half marathon. I think that part of the problem was that the half marathon the week before provided pace areas to group people and the MadCity 10K did not. I had no idea where to begin so I paid the price for that by thinking that I was keeping a good pace but was over 30 seconds per mile faster than I was training at – boy did I get passed at the end 😳
