14.1 miles this morning starting at 4:15am again. Ran 8 with Sasha and 12 on the Provo River Trail. Easy miles again. However, the last 2 miles I joined the cadets for their 2 mile run test. I was pacing the faster cadets. The first mile was 6:00 and the second mile was 5:33. Both felt good and very relaxed. I think I could have finished with a 5:20 mile but I was trying to pace one of the cadets and started to pull away too much so held back. Overall not feeling too bad and the miles are coming along nicely. Long hard workout day tomorrow so we will see how things go.

Nice speed you had a lot left in the tank.

What's your actual marathon pace?
