Tonight's Tempo Run

  Tonight's 6 mile tempo run went pretty well, 40 seconds faster than my fastest 10k yet (1:00:00) and last week's tempo run was 1 hour and 48 seconds, tonight's was 59:20. My first time breaking the 1 hour barrier which is awesome though I know I could have done maybe 20 seconds or faster if I hadn't had to struggle to make that last mile while avoiding crossing streets or going back on the greenway in the darkness. Anyways, it was a great run and I am going to enjoy my 5 mile easy run Friday. This weekend I hit 9 miles, we will see how that goes. My splits were:
   Mile 1 - 10:13
   Mile 2 - 10:23
   Mile 3 - 9:46
   Mile 4 - 9:56
   Mile 5 - 9:48
   Mile 6 - 9:12

I am pretty proud of that, the last 4 miles I stayed under a 10 minute pace.
