Penske-she wasn't running a 5K she was effectively running a long sprint- and for some very important stakes.
Maybe you're misremembering about how much lead you gave her?

It may have been more. I understand the difference between an 800 and 5K. Do you understand that to run fast, especially at track distances, takes training? Someone who goes out and runs 8:30-9:00 minute miles and is generally fit can't necessarily toss off 2:00 minute quarters or 4:00 minute halfs because of that. Frankly, I am not sure if you could today, even if it was for naming rights.
