3:30 came early this morning. And it was time to get in a early morning tempo run. Temps were nice and cool 59 with a very slight breeze. Goal was 1 mile easy 5 at 7:00 pace. Felt pretty good for the first mile. And then the work began. It seems harder to run that early in the dark for watching my paces. And tried to go by feel of the pace. And came up short for a few of them due to it. But still felt pretty good about the run. Mile 1 8:17 Mile 2 7:01 Mile 3 7:05 Mile 4 7:16 Mile 5 7:15 Mile 6 7:09 TT 44:08 AP 7:21 Side note. Retiring my 8a pair of shoes. They were really worn on the right foot heel. So tried to focus not dragging my heel on that side this run. And run more smoothly.
