Total Distance
4.95

8:30AM 75F 80% humidity. I went to Duke East Campus and did 3 loops (each is 1.65M). It was good effort but I didn't feel like I'm killing myself. The splits were great (13:04, 12:44, 12:33). In mer mile terms: 7:55, 7:43 and 7:36. Pretty good. So maybe I'm starting to re-gain my speed. It's also the fact that I'm making myself to go to bed earlier and also due to the relatively cooler weather in the morning. Tomorrow is rest day and the long run is on Sunday.
