Did the 6 mile workout again - same time of 31:40. Built a nice gap of 20 seconds (relative to 5:20 average) in the canyon, then was dead even for the last two miles. This time there was no contrsuction at the end and I actually got to finish the interval.

Did a shakeout mile in 4:54. This is a little experiment I've started doing - run a mile at half marathon or 10K pace each day. The goal is to get more fast mileage in and hopefully improve my speed.

Today did 2x3 miles in the canyon, first up then down. When going up I got 17:08 - and then 15:08 going down. I was ahead of 5-minute pace at 2 miles on the way down - (my father and William were rabbits who started two minutes ahead and went 6 minutes/mile pace. I caught them). Then the heat got to me and I blew up in the last mile - 5:13.
