Notes
Ran this one the same trail as last week. Similarly hot and sunny today but I was smarter in what I ate for lunch. Also, unlike the last few days it wasn't windy. There was a breeze but nothing serious. The temperature was somewhere between 75 and 80 and I handled it better than ever before.
I think another key in this tempo going a lot better was that I didn't lose my mind and over run the first 400. My first 400 was somewhere in the low 80s, a little excited but ultimately about right.
Mile splits were (all with some change in the tenths of seconds.)
5:44
5:46
5:39
Important to note that this was faster than last week and I ran .5 miles further.
