3.50 mile warm

3 mile tempo run

splits 5:10; 4:44; 4:54

Legs felt like they had some bounce in them today. The goal today was just to hit 3 miles @ goal marathon pace. Went out in the first mile which felt like a conservative comfortable pace. When 5:10 came up I was like okay cool lets go with this. Second mile honestly don't know where that come from bet it felt awesome!! Third mile I was committed to finish under sub 5. hit 4:54.

Great 3 mile tempo in the books. One more week until the marathon, I am stoked for this one!! Hometown race and feeling good, just going to enjoy it and have fun!!

2.65 cool
