Where did that come from. I tried to average 8:30 pace for 7 miles before the end of June. I didn't get close when I tried. I couldn't match the pace I was running in May. It is hotter but still, I didn't understand what was going on. So this morning, after running 27 miles in the last 4 days, which is a lot for me, I felt strong. I ran the first one slow but decided to push it and see where it went. Last week and the week before when I tried that I was done after 3 miles. Today I just kept going I kept putting in fast miles and bringing my average pace down and finished with 8:28 average pace. It came a week late but there it is. Cool.
