Notes
Planned on a smooth, easy long run today...had no intention of it turning into this. Beautiful day.
Started out smooth and strong, then turned south into a steady 10 mph breeze. Knees a bit achy but otherwise legs were feeling good. Didn't make a conscious effort to speed up, but it happened and by the 4th mile had set a very quick pace.
Was able to hold this pace and finished with an excellent overall time for this distance.
Legs got very fatigued on last mile and muscles had the lactate acid burn going for a bit...managed to hold the pace but had to dig and speed up the breathing.
7:05, 6:52, 6:46, 6:32, 6:32, 6:33, 6:31, 6:30
