Narrative:
After landing on runway 19 in akron, we were instructed to turn left on runway 14. With taxiway C closed, I wrongly assumed it was runway 14 that was closed. I then turned onto runway 5 and was facing a C172 in position and ready for takeoff on runway 23. The tower quickly corrected our error and no other problems occurred. I believe my lack of situational awareness was the root of the problem. Better awareness will correct the problem.
