March Running: A good 5000

Now with the debut marathon out of the way, the time for real training had begun. The first half of March was part of the 4 weeks I took to recover from Tokyo Marathon. The second half involved getting fit for the coming track season.
Two good races this month ... a good run at the tamako ekiden and a personal best at the 5km on the track. Two good results without much training on me.
