AM: Track in Safety Harbor. Standard 5-mile tempo at marathon pace. Went a little over just because I felt like it, and the pace felt entirely too easy. All miles were between 6:50 and 6:55.
It's a weird feeling to know I'll be "taking it easy" for the Chicago Marathon on Sunday as opposed to going for a PR. I suppose I set this in stone by racing the 15k pretty hard two days ago, but I still feel odd about it. Fortunately, it just means the party can start the moment I cross the line.
