I ran 11 miles alone today, in my first run back in Provo. The run was rather odd for the first while, as I was running at or near 7:00 pace, and it felt like 7:30 or 7:40 pace. Even the sections with a little bit of snow weren't really slowing me down. At 5 miles I was at 35:17, and I decided to speed up and catch the 7:00 guy. I ran the next half mile in 3:04 to make it to the half-way mark in 38:21. After this I decided to slow down, however I had some trouble actually doing it for the first couple miles. After turning around I hit miles from 7:14-7:28 over the next 4 miles before finally slowing down a bit more heading up the hill to home to finish in 1:19:25.
