My goal was to do 1 mile at 7:10 pace, jog for 0.25 miles and then 0.5 miles at 6:50 pace to get a feel for how to pace myself in the race this Saturday. I did 7:17 for the mile and 7:15 for the 0.5 mile. It appears that I'm not very discriminating when it comes to pace. I was using my phone to gauge instantaneous pace and it just wasn't that accurate. Maybe I was relying on it a little too much. I probably just should have brought a watch to time my splits.
