I guess I can't call them slow miles, but they felt it. Pace my friend Brian at the Miles for Moffitt 10k I was supposed to race. He did okay. He doesn't really put in much mileage (20-30 a week), so it's not bad given that. He was shooting for a 44:00 and got a 46:30. I tried pulling him along, but he knew he didn't have it and/or gave up around mile 2 going for that time. I spent the rest of the "race" goofing around with Celia and talking. I suppose that's got to be annoying for the other runners, but it was nice to just kind of chill in a race. Most of the miles were around 7:15-7:20 pace.
I felt okay and wasn't winded at all, but I was very sore after.
