Fun, hot morning run with Scott, Mike, Toni, and Bryce. Met at the soccer park and started with an easy 10 stopping up south fork. Bryce and Toni turned around at 7.5. Tempo was the plan on the way down and I ended up changing mine on the fly. Instead of letting Scott and Mike go I decided to hang with them for one mile. That mile felt good so I stayed about 10 feet back until the 5k point and then let them go. Next time I will try and and hang for 5, and the next time longer. My splits for 7 miles of tempo were 5:31, 5:35, 5:22, 6:06, 5:46, 5:54, 5:50. We regrouped at the endless fountain and ran it in easy together to finish the 20. Very happy with this run given how hot it was this morning and I'm feeling good afterward. Probably because Scott took us for donuts afterward, so tasty. Thanks Scott! Great morning as always. 6:47

Solid, Brandon. Just keep extending that pace out a little more... little at a time. Hanging w/ the group is a great way to do that. Nice run.
