Beautiful day with cool temperatures and low humidity. Sun warmed up some by the end of the run, but great conditions. Covered 15 miles average pace of 7:48 with final mile near MP at 7:22. Except for sore back from painting, felt exceptionally strong today. Didn't really try to accelerate in the final mile. Pleasant surprise.

Interval workout in moderate morning temps and sun. Three x two-mile intervals with three minutes of jogging in between. Splits were 12:50, 12:54, 12:33. Last one included a pit stop in the woods at 1.5 miles, so the finish might have been faster than otherwise, but the first mile of that interval was still 6:16 and I think I could have kicked it in pretty solidly.
