great workout tonight, a true gauge of my fitness. I did this workout on the mill, so it was pretty controlled conditions, but 5:50-6:00 pace is what it is. mile w/u then dropped a 5 mile tempo with a fast finish. i felt very comfortable at this pace, which is a great sign. splits:

1- 6:01.8

2- 6:02.0

3- 6:03.1 (for some reason it was slowing down..maybe my splits werent exactly even)

4- 5:58.1

5- 5:51.2

TOTAL-- 29:56, 5:59 avg pace, hit 18:06 for the first 3 then 11:49 for the final 2 to negative split the run slightly. great workout overall, 1.5 c/d. scheduled day off tomorrow

Pretty cool run tonight, i found a brand new trail that is very scenic and follows the entire river running through freiburg. I went out 3.5 and back 3.5 for a total of 7. after 5, i threw it into gear and dropped a solid 1.5 mile tempo at very good pace.Hit the 6th mile in 5:41.7 and then the last .5 mile in 3:02, it was a tad long, more like .53, so right on 5:50ish pace. Either way it was a fantastic way to finish a run. Finished with a half mile cooldown, but by then i was feeling so good i ran the last .47ish in 3:08. 10:16 for the middle 1.5 and a 6:50 opening mile. my total run time was 46:51, so my splits were all over the place bcause I didnt have all the mile markers down. The only thing i know for sure is that i hit that 1.5 in those times and that it was accurate for that. I remeasured when i got home. 46:51 for 7 miles translates to 6:42 avg pace. overall good workout, very happy with how easy 5:40 pace felt tonight especially after 5 pretty decent miles (5 mile split was something around 34:55(6:59 pace).
