A shorter long run today but with a large chunk at a faster pace. Goal was sub 59 for the last 10 miles. Turned out to be 58:40. I thought this would feel easier than it did. It was never easy right from the start but it never got too difficult either. Kind of a weird run. I picked it up a little the last few miles but I really didn't feel like I had a ton left to offer as far as picking up the pace towards the end. All in all a very good run just a little harder than I was expecting. Warmed up 6 at about 6:55 pace then splits for 10 mile portion were: 5:56,5:57,5:54,5:53,5:53,5:53,5:53,5:51,5:50,5:41. Jogged home .3 or so very slowly. Avg. 6:17 for the run.

You've nailed so many good ones recently - even if this didn't feel great, still a very solid run.
