What should I do with a 5-year Treasury earning 3.125% I bought in 2003?

Thomas O asked: I bought a small bond latter with a 1-year, 3-year and 5 year note and the 5-year is the only outstanding bond left. Sell it or let it mature? I understand rates are higher but am I penalizing myself by selling before maturity?
