A 10 miler also with the club running group at Yale. They are really pushing me to run harder and faster than I though possible! Today we did a 10 miler also averaging a 6:54 min pace, which I found I was comfortable with. I am also really enjoying meeting other college runners at school and exploring new routes. But I am definitely going to be ALOT faster than running by myself :) School is also going really well, so I am very happy. My next race will be a half marathon in October, and after that I am planning to compete in a club running meet and run a 5k. My goal for the half marathon is to finish under 1:25 which is about 6:45 minute miles. We will see how I do.

That's pretty fast. Keep up the good work.

You should be able to crack 1:20 in a race situation if 10 miles at 6:54 was comfortable.

I would go out at an effort a little bit slower than your 2.5 mile tempo run and just try to hang on. Do not worry about the splits too much, just run. You should have the endurance to run a good half by now.
