AM: longish run in Clearwater with Darek, Brian, Jason, Jeff, and Greg.  Two strides and a 1x2mile effort at MP to end the run.  Felt easy, and honestly more comfortable than I expected.  Although yesterday wasn't even a medium workout, just because of the mileage I figured it would be more tiring than it was.

Split (2-mile):  11:37 (5:48/mi)

AM: 11.3 miles with a workout and the group.  Workout was a modified Michigan workout, 6:00 hard, 1:00 off, 6:00 @ MP effort, 1:00 off, 4:30 hard, 1:00 off, 6:00 @MP effort, 1:00 off, 3:00 hard.

Splits (paces)-   6:00 (5:00/mile), 6:00 (5:38/mile), 4:30 (5:09/mile), 6:00 (5:54/mile), 3:00 (5:06/mile)

Overall... I should have run faster.  My legs were tired, but still should handle it.  I did not break at any point, yet slowed down throughout.  There isn't really any excuse I have other than running fast is challenging and my mindset wavered, allowing me to choose the easier, slower outcome.  Disappointed.

PM: 5 miles

Workout was easy.  Paced the 2ks with the guys, then did my own thing on the 0.5s.
