ill probably start counting 6:50+ as easy mileage cuz i got out today and managed another easy paced run in that vicinity. pretty chilly, 28 degrees, wc of 20, felt good though given i had just Pr-ed yesterday at the 5k. splits:

1- 6:46.7

2- 6:46.6 (pace lock)

3- 6:48.2

4- 6:59.0

5- 6:52.5

6- 6:51.4

7- 6:48.4

8- 7:07.9 hill

total 55:00, 6:52.5 avg pace, kind of cool to hit an flat number like 55:00, ive done that a few times this fall. maybe got one more decent 5k in me, may be an indoor time trial to let it all out in a controlled accurate environment to see what i can run.

strides and ice bath after

some 800 pickups mixed into the normal run, 2:35 and 2:31, 40:xx total time, so pretty good splits overall.

decided today that while i may have another fast 5k in me yet this season, there are no more opportune race options. everything this weekend looks fine distance and course wise, but the weather is horrible, 15 degrees with wc around 0...hard to PR in those conditions, so instead I have offcially ended my fall season. stinks cuz i was on such a hot streak, but my legs have been sore lately and i dont wanna risk injury with a big spring marathon in Prague coming up in may. thus, i will take 7-10 days and then begin marathon training. next summer after the mary, i will break 16 in the 5k. peace easy and happy holidays!
