Stazza's 20K shunts

Average pace for the 10K on portion was 5:15 min/miles

Average pace for the 10K off portion was 6:25 min/miles

felt good for the most part. Was supposed to be around 5:40ish pace for the off portion but just didnt have it in me for some reason.

Felt really good today, my down hill running form is garbage, need to get a massage so I can feel like I can extend, that will help lengthen my stride, spend less energy.

Cut the run short. Slept in a little too long. Was going to double this afternoon but I figure since the marathon is next week it will be better to rest then over do it.
