Four along the trail in 26:47 (6:41/mile).  I felt like going fast today.  I ran an 800m in the middle at 5:30 pace.  It felt okay, but it didn't really feel sustainable for much more than a mile or two.  I was at 13:50 at the turnaround.  I planned on slowing down after that, but decided to try and break 27:00 for the 4 miles.  Finished up with 12:57 for the last two miles.
