Notes
Saturday: 1 mile easy, 8 miles at 7:15-7:20, 1 mile cooldown
The first four miles were uphill and into the wind, so it was a little tough to settle into a rhythm. It took about 1.5 miles to get settled in. Once I turned around I just tried to keep that effort the same. The last 4 were pretty easy actually (downhill and wind at my back). I just tried to stay as smooth as possible. I checked my watch a few times on the way back and actually had to slow down.
It was a nice run, and I felt good.
