Nice new PR too. Just imagine what times you'll hit your junior year if you keep it up. You'll definitely break the 4 minute mark soon.

Also, after training with my new trail shoes (new balance), it's about time that I'm the market for a flat. I'll be going to for a competitive 5k soon near the end of this month. Any suggestions? I really do not want to go with any barefoot shoes because I'm afraid I'll damage my feet.

If you like New Balance, the 1400 (or 1400v2) is a heck of a shoe. I use the Adidas Adios Boost, but it is pretty dang expensive for a racing flat (although it's the best flat I have ever worn). If you want something a bit more substantial (more like a marathon shoe), try the Brooks Launch, Adidas Boston, or Saucony Kinvara.
