Good little "workout" this morning. Everyone was making me feel guilty with their Boston training already so I decided I'd do some 1 mile repeats too. I was feeling really good this morning after swimming yesterday so what the heck. 6 mile progressive warm up in 42:18, took a quick water break and then 3x1 mile repeats with 1/2 mile jog in between. First mile in 5:53, would have been faster but the treadmill ramp up took a few extra seconds, second mile in 5:46, last mile in 5:37. That one hurt a bit, I was going to run a 2 mile cool down but I was too sick after the last mile and stopped. I was pretty surprised how easy my legs found the pace, and pretty happy I was able to get through all of them, and even happier I was able to get faster each time. 10 miles in 1:07:46, 6:46 avg pace for total run.
