5 miles in 39:14, 7:50/mi, HR 167.  Sunny and warm (73F).  LM/LL warmup, 12 accelerations (6 uphill, 3 flat, 3 downhill) + fast finish, 1+ mi cooldown walk with dogs, and some light stretching.  Decided to skip the core workout today....everyone deserves a break, right?

But that's not the most remarkable thing about today's run.  Somehow, I was Mr. Consistent.  My garmin splits were 8:07.71, 8:07.87, 7:59.32, 7:29.63, 7:29.83 on my 2.5 mile out and back course.  How in the world did I manage that???
