Notes

I wanted to do a tempo run and get a better idea of where I was. This felt very fast the whole time - even when I backed off the pace I still felt fast. I had to wait :40 (approx) for a light so to be conservative I took :30 off my finish time. mileI'm not sure I could run much fast than this pace even if I was only running a 5K. I did a .6 pickup and it was not all out because I didn't want to have to stop running when I was done but i was going at it pretty hard and that was only 7:30 pace. I hope that I can continue with this momentum and be able to get to this pace as my easy run but right now it's as hard as I can go. Hopefully at my next 5K the adrenaline will account for a fast 1st mile and let me hold on for the next 2.
