I had a real hard time convincing my legs to move at the beginning of the run.  My lower legs were pretty tight for the first mile.  Started to loosen up and was able to run a little quicker.  Felt better each mile and was able to finish strong.  My left heel feels quite a bit better.  It is still sore but I can tell that it is healing.

Did it feel like a marathon pace tempo, or do you feel your true marathon pace has improved significantly?

It actually felt a little more work than marathon pace for most of the run. The last 2.3 miles were at 7:00/mile which felt good but when I was running 7:15-7:30 it felt like I was working too hard.

I will be running 15 miles with 12 at marathon pace on Saturday so I should get an idea of where I am. These runs have never gone well for me so I don't read too much into them.
