We slept in today till 7.  Wow was it great and got out for our run by 9am.  Bit later then our normal runs.   Plan was to run at our half and marathon paces.  I went for my 10 and the wife did her 8.  At our 8:00 pace.  So we took the first mile a bit faster then normal and we tried to simulate her half race.  So after the first mile the next mile was steeper with the last half with the steepest part.  Then next mile had about half of it gradual uphill and then downhill for next 1.5.  Then the next rest of the run was just slight hills.  And we were able to find our paces then a lot easier.  And it felt really good.  So I am excited for the race next weekend.  Things are coming together nicely.
