5 enjoyable miles this morning.  I thought it was going to be cold and windy but it was warm and breezy instead.  In fact, it was warmer than it has been in a long time at 5am, 49 degrees.  Weird.  I don't remember the average for the first half because I reset and set a slow pace alert.  I've never run with one before.  I tried to set a fast alert too but they have to be like 90 seconds apart.  Oh well.  Anyway, I set the slow pace for a fairly relaxing 8:45.  I tried to run relaxed but it definitely didn't allow me to be complacent.  I don't quite get it though.  With a fair number of beeps reminding me that I needed to speed up my average pace was 8:07, no where near 8:45. I was trying to hit 8:30 but the beeping wouldn't let me.

Window? Yeah, I can't figure out the beeping beeps either on the fast and slow paces.

Modest is hottest, allie.
