8 miles with 5 x 1 mile at 6:00 pace.  I've been working up to that for a couple months.  I did cheat and take an extra minute recovery between each repeat today, but I still did it!

I people shed the pace early in this run to test my fitness level. I did not make it long before I started to fade then by mile 14 my pace was really dropping off so I stopped my watch and went really slow on the last 2 miles

I was feeling a bit beat up after yesterday's run this morning so I started out very slow. As I got going, I started feeling better and better. Right before I started my 7th and last mile I realized I had been getting faster and faster and stilll OM felt really good so I ran the last mile hard and logged a 5:59. That felt good to see that I can still pick up the pace when I'm feeling good.

Thinking that we were going to go on a spring break trip starting tomorrow, I mixed it up and did my hill sprints that I usually do Wednesday, today.  Total 6 miles.  It's looking more and more like we will stay home though amid all the corona virus stuff.  I am already booked out so I guess I'll just hang out with the family at home and maybe get in a few long runs.

I headed out for a long slow run. Well I nailed the slow part. Not so much the long part. My faster runs earlier in the week caught up to me today so I cut my run short and did more of a medium slow run.
