Ran a loop from my house to the gym.  I started out at about an 8:00 to 8:15 minute mile and then sped up.  I don't know what my actual splits were but my last mile felt fast.  AP was 7:50.  Felt great.  I love this cool weather.

This was a fun run.  I only wish it hadn't started almost an hour late.  Going in I had no expectations since I haven't really been able to train, so I was really surprised to end with an AP of 7:30.  My time of 1:38:27 is a new PR by 10 seconds.  The down hill was really fast, I'll be interested to see how fast I can run this race with some consistant training.   Felt pretty good most of the race, struggled a little the last mile or so. 

It was fun to see Walter, Rad, Bec and others.  Walters costume was the best!
