Good run today.  Warmed up the first two miles and then held the pace at 7:13 (TM).  It felt effortless as if I could run at that speed forever.  Was tempted to up the speed but didn't want to get into tempo speed (although 7:13 usually feels like a tempo effort).  Wanted to do 10 today but ran out of time and had to run to the Jazz game.  I had the suite tonight and had a bunch of clients showing up so after a quick shower, picked up my wife and off to the game.

total time: 60:00

Average Pace: 7:25

Very impressive Lyman. 7:13 effortless? Sheesh! What's your goal in your upcoming 10k?

Man, suite at the Jazz game? You've got it pretty rough.

Vinh - you know hot it is, someday everything just clicks. Felt good. I'm not sure what pace I'll be shooting for my next 10-k. I've never run the course before. It'll probably be in the 6:40 to 6:55 range.

Burt - not my personal suite unfortunetly but I get to use it about 2-3 a month for work. Although I get my kids and friends in every once in a while.

Yea, I understand. Yesterday was one of days for me though I didn't push the pace. I felt great though. Sounds like a good goal for your 10k. My upcoming 10k has a good incline (about a mile or lil bit more at 4% grade). I can never pace myself up it w/o cramping haha. Hoping to hit sub 44 or sub 43..we'll see though. Gotta get past this marathon first.
