3 Mile Benchmark

Felt stronger today.  I think I'm recovering from the blood donation, but not all the way back yet.  Endurance is an issue.  I was running out of gas towards the end of the third fast mile. I think I had a stronger 2nd mile compared to the rest--which is unusual because it is the most difficult.  It helped that I figured out the half-way point which helped me focus on intermediate goals since I just don't have as many rabbits out there to chase on these cold dark mornings.
