10 miles this morning in 1:10:50. I ran miles 6 and 7 fast trying to relax as much as possible while still running under 6:00 pace. Splits were 5:52, 5:36. I thought the first split was going to be faster, but it was on a mild uphill with a mild headwind. I also ran the final "mile" fast, running it in 5:28. This mile was a lot slower than the others due to hills and turns, but my split was faster as I was running harder. The distance for the final mile was estimated, but according to the course tool my guess was pretty much right on. |
