I just realized that I totally beat my PR in a 10 miler from January on a rather routine easy training run without even trying...it's awesome to see all the hard work pay off! I think I could probably crush that PR by 10 minutes now...hell to the yeah yeah.

Goals?

This PR you destroyed -- was it in bottles or cans? Cause those are distinct categories.

It's a 5k. It hurt like hell...then I tried to pick it up. The end.

Someone here once posted a gem of a line that went something along the lines of "...my short, slow runs are what used to be my long, hard runs...".

Don't let the good feeling wear off too soon, you've earned it!

Bottles...I like to see the glass go everywhere when I throw them at the wall.

Goals?

I've been feeling like my runs were kind of boring recently -- now I'm seeing what I'm missing.

Also, great improvement (so stray to the original topic)...

Awesome! It's great to be able to see that kind of progress!
