Ran the fields loop. Ran it probably too fast but I had some aggression to get out of my system. Ran the first 8 at about 6:30 pace then backed off the last 2 and did them about 7:30. Felt pretty good the whole time until I backed it off!

Club run tonight. Was going to run the 4 miles from work to the store then run with the club but got out of the office a bit late and by the time I started running only got about a quarter mile before realizing I would not make it in time and ended up turning around to take the car instead. So ran about 9.4 with the club...
