The answer

Undertaking a vow is disliked (makrooh). What you have undertaken is a vow of contention (nathr al-lajaj). The preponderant opinion is that whoever breaks a vow of contention must offer a single expiation for an oath (kaffarat yameen). Congregational prayer is obligatory for a capable man who hears the call to prayer.
