I was feeling tired and run down. Kids were off school Thursday and Friday and I was watching my brother's four kids, so I had been pretty busy and hadn't slept well for a couple of nights. Decided to run it as a workout instead of racing all out. Ran with my SIL, Emily for the first 6 or 7 miles, took a potty stop, then picked it up a tad until mile 10 when I pushed hard for the last 3 miles. Averaged around 7:05 pace for the first 10 miles, and I think closer to 6:05 pace for the last 5K.
