2.6 mile warm up with David, and Kevin, and then to the start line.  I'd planned to do do 4 miles at 7:30 pace, and then 6 miles at MGP (7:15 or thereabouts).  I stuck to the plan for the first 4 miles, but then couldn't contain it after that.  Oh well...I felt in control, and only turned on the afterburners in the last couple of miles.  Here are the splits: 7:39, 7:41, 7:27, 7:24, 6:40, 6:39, 6:40, 6:34, 6:22, 6:16.  Average pace was 6:57.

Its been a few days since I've been able to type a blog entry as I've been a little under the weather.  This afternoon I made it on a short "recovery" style run.  I felt very rusty, and barely seemed to to be moving forward.  However, I managed 8:30 min/mile average pace.  Tomorrow I'll go for 8-10 miles and see if I am up the ante a little!
