AM 17 at 7:15 overall pace. Started just after 5:30 and went from my house to the JRP and headed south. Turned back around at the 8 mile mark and started a 5 mile tempo. Miraculously I hit every mile of the 5 mile tempo at 6:08. So I guess I avg 6:08 for the tempo. Cooled down for 4 miles after. This was a really good run for me. I didn't expect to be able to hit the tempo as fast as I did, especially considering how flat/roling the terrain was. Was expecting to be more around 6:20-6:25s.
