Another windy 5 miles behind the high school. Started running with a kid on the cross country team. Quickly realized that his pace was going to be quicker. Our routes overlapped a couple times because he did the big loop and I ran around the ponds a couple times. My total time running was about the same as Wednesday, but my watch didn't pick up right away so I think I went a little over 5 miles (like .04 or something). Splits: 9:09 (with small bit of extra), 8:47, 8:27, 8:37, 8:07. I didn't realize that my last mile was that fast until just now. I felt like I was pushing it a little, but the effort felt natural and good.
