Last tune up before Saturday from my home. I ran 4 miles out river bottoms road and then turned around and did 3 miles at MP. Goal was to get into a good rhythm and be consistent. Got it done! 5:46.95, 5:46.51, 5:47.90. I only looked at the watch when it beeped and the route is flat so I feel very good about it. A few shakes and some strides is all that's left. 6:40

Sounds like you are going to be about 25 sec per mile faster than me which puts you at 2:24. Yowza!

Dude your workouts have gone to a completely new level since HCH - you should not be shocked when you are going up Veyo at 6 flat and flying down the first miles at 5:20.
