1mi warmup 5k race first finisher that was not part of the cross country team. Been a long time since I have ran such a short race. I struggle with acid reflux and need to sleep on an incline. However I forgot my incline pillow and medicine, so I was not too happy and worried about how my chest would react to the race. Found out at the second mile, me and the leader were step for step and then all of a sudden cramp in chest and spread to the rest of my body and was struggling to finish. Faded back to fifth since I could not close. I am thinking about doing another 5k in this next two weeks at home so I can have the pillow and meds. Pretty ok with the time given everything.
