Computer at work is up and running again. OH YEAH!! So I can log my runs again at home.:) Went for a run again on the same route at Monday with Alex again. Had a really good run this time. I think the first 2 miles were faster then what we did before. Right close to the end of the 2nd mile he asked for a break. Of course I didn't let him take one just slowed it down. I know I am mean. But he thought that was just enough and then we headed up hill for the last .45 to his house. Ended up a bit faster I think for that part. Then I was off to finish the rest alone. After hitting the uphill mile I was feeling great. And had the wind at my back. Started picking up the pace a bit more and it felt good. Hit the last corner and reset the the lap for the last lap. Oh and it was a good one. With around .2 to go I was at 6:05 pace and started to push it harder to get it under 6 mins. But just barely missed it. And luckily the light turned at the right time. I finally stopped on the other side of cross walk.:) Dang it just missed it but it is the fastest I have ran that mile before so feeling really good. 1 more week till the 5k.:) Mile 1 8:09 Mile 2 8:09 Mile 3 8:37 Mile 4 8:02 Mile 5 7:18 Mile 5-.2 1:26 (7:27 pace) Mile 5.2-6.2 6:01 So close to breaking the 6 min mile mark:) TT 47:46 AP 7:43 Was inspired to run this last mile harder then before after reading Rhett's speedy mile interval. Hopefully here soon I will get that under 6.:)
