5 out and back on Las Vegas Blvd. Easy pace. Picked it up little at mile 7 . Felt easy so at mile 8.5 i saw i was at 7:11 pace so picked it up a little for the next half mile to get under 7mm-- 6:56. Next mile saw garmin at 6:29 so held that pace for a mile and came in at 6:26 albeit with two stop lights dang. If my heel was btr , minis the protruding scar/neuroma/bone spur i would be like "game on". I adapted to tbis injury but i cant go on forever like this. Surgery to chisel it off and remove the nerve is my thoughts for full recovery. In the meantime i jave decided no more steroid shots for me. Not good for the body. AP for 10.23 miles - 7:53.

I think I started at about 9 am. From Wynn alllllll the way down to and through a pretty sketchy part of town.

I should have headed east or west or better yet headed for the hills. Way to get it done.
