4am Tempo run with my new pair of shoes.  It went pretty good for the most part.  Seems that my garmin has issues when do a hairpin turn.  Because I am close to my set paces and after turning around I am 10 secs off.  Was kind of annoying.  Goal was to run 1 mile warm up and cool down with 6 miles @ 7:04 pace.  Felt really good about the run overall.  And very happy to do 8 miles in under 1 hr though too.

Mile 1 8:35

Mile 2 7:00

Mile 3 7:02

Mile 4 7:11 Had my first turn around.  Thinking it was actually right on pace though.

Mile 5 7:07

Mile 6 7:14 Another turn around again.

Mile 7 7:04

Mile 8 8:40

great job out there this morning! looks like you pretty well nailed the pace - except for the Garmin hiccups.

Tim- Yeah I was debating about subtracting a few secs on those annoying miles I was over due to the turn around. But happy with the run.

Teena- Bah I am just tring to stay ahead of you. I dont think I can get chicked again by you.:)

Allie- Thanks Allie:)

Vinh- Bah, I am just gearing up. And you will start to gear up next week too. We are going to nail it in SG.

Nice run. 8 miles in an hour, that would be nice.

I dont know how many times I have actually hit it to be honest. I am sure in a race I have done it. I just know that when I am doing my long runs on the TM it comes very close alot of times. And I am happy I was able to do it then. Kind of pushed the cooldown a bit to make it under too.:)
