After a 2 mile warmup (more like a cool-up, very cold and windy) did 2 miles fast. I got 12:01! (5:58, 6:03, quarter kick was 89). This is the fastes in 2 months. I got more sleep so that helped. The 10 year old Matthew still beat me though. He got 11:58. Even though I improved a bit I still think something is a wrong; the energy I had today could do a lot more before. But, I am also not pushing myself as hard on the last half mile. I am more afraid of going all out because I don't want to feel pain after. After 2 miles easy I did another mile in 5:49. I didn't feel horrible after. The rest of the miles were around 8:30 pace.
