Ran 7 miles averaging 6:00 pace including a 36:45 10k and a 17:55 5k. Closed the last two miles in 11:15. Felt pretty good today. Initially I just had intended to run sub 7 pace, I just went out at a quick pace that felt good and by mile 2 I looked at the pace and it was sub 6. I'm pretty confident I could go sub 18 minute 5k pace for a flat marathon on enough mileage.
