This was a dead-eye imperative run; my wife ushered me out the door.  I stepped off the porch, and pushed start on my watch.  First mile was 6:50.  Then I kept going to the 10k turnaround.  I got there in 20:50.  So at least that's sub-7 pace.  I came home easier, but the tempo had been set, so my pace kept drifting up.

 I think two differences between being a runner and a jogger is a watch, and signing up for races.  I've done a lot of jogging this winter.

Pretty darn fast Kam. I like being a jogger.

nice. you've got some good natural speed.

i've got a watch, and though i sign up for races, i've been known to not show up to the starting line. kind of makes me the anti-runner. :-/

Yep! You are echoing my feeling from this morning's run. I ran without my watch for the first time in a long time. I can't tell you how many times I walked, stopped to look at things and do meaningless things when I was actually in a hurry. Probably 9-10min pace today.

Good job on your run. Nice to get some tempo in after some time off, huh:)
