absolutely gorgeous day today, mid 60s and sunny. Actually kind of warm, felt nice! 4 miles in a little more up-tempo, I wanted to cut my volume this week but keep up some intensity, and today was representative of that i think. splits: 1- 7:05.9 2- 7:16.3 (14:22, 7:11 pace) 3- 7:03.2 4- 6:59.4 TOTAL-- 28:24, 7:06 pace Overall, it was a good tuneup and everything felt good. Its crazy how after running my mileage days slower the last month or two that 7:00 pace feels a little harder than it used to. I used to do this pace everyday, but to get more mileage I've slowed down and I didnt realize there was such a difference between a 7:45 mile and a 7:00 mile. Interesting stuff. Weather should be perfect this weekend, thinking sub 17 for sure, but shooting for a PR is my A goal for the 5k.
