7 miles with a fartleck of 1x10mn @ 5k race pace effort, 1x5mn @ slightly faster, 1X3mn @ slightly faster, 1x2mn @ slightly faster, 1x1mn @ slightly faster.  That was tough, Nick!

7 miles with 4 mile tempo run. Nick wanted the tempo at 6:20 to 6:30 but I got ambitious and ran the 4 miles at 6:04 pace - probably ran the first two at 5:50 pace and the second two at 6:20 pace. The last tempo mile was quite tough for me, but I felt the joy of movement and life as I coasted the easy miles back home.

Despite the "easy" pace, the second half of the run did not seem easy. I think my eyeballs were starting to freeze in the 20 degree air. Awesome. Tried Hammer Gel halfway - going to see if I can get my stomach used to it. Ran to gravel pit and back - times were 57:30 out and 59 min back.
