Great run today. Something about spring-like weather that makes me want to fly. It felt great to run in shorts and light gloves, rather than long-sleeves, beenie, and heavy gloves. Anyway, I started out wanting to just 6:00/mile pace, but I felt really good, so after a couple miles, I dropped the pace and turned it into a tempo run. I ran past the Coke plant, back roads to the hospital, past CVHS, then north on the main street to the northern freeway exit. That last 1.5 miles is all up-hill, but I seemed to maintain pace no problem. Good stuff. Anyway, back the same way, plus a little more. Such a fun run. The tempo distance ended up @ 10.2 miles, so I ran a bit more to make it an even 11.
Tempo Distance: 10.20
Total Time: 56:50
Pace: 5:34
