Notes
Started at temp 75, DP 60, ended at temp 80, DP 54. Out and back from Fletchers to Pierce Mill, using towpath both ways. Ran with a big group (Anna, Jessica M, Anna's friend, Chris M, and Sam) that dwindled down to Jessica, Chris and I. The three of us ran together until I picked it up to marathon pace feel just after Calvert Crossing
Definitely picked this one up too soon - first mile and a half at 8:38, next 7.5 at 7:46, last 5 at 7:12. Should have kept it in the 8:30s or slower a bit longer, but oh well. Was pleasantly surprised - the first part of the run felt sluggish, but when I tried marathon pace effort, it felt easy. My form was falling apart a bit at end, especially keeping the glutes firing and the right ab engaged - but that's why I need to do these runs.
