AM 10k Series Race in Seymour.  5 degress, with windchill (or whatever "real feel" means) below zero.  Resigned to slower goal time due to temp. and recent training results vs. percieved efforts.  5:45 first mile was too hard, as suspected, but, kept the rest right around 6:00.  not much to say, since I'm pretty dissappointed with current fitness level.  36:54 - 10k for a lonesome 2nd place
