8 miles + speed

What a fun run! My tight calf that has been bugging me for a couple of weeks now felt great as did everything else about this run. It's amazing what a good email can do for you =) Today called for 8 miles with 2:00 worth of speed every 15 minutes. I did 2x1:00, 2x1:00, 1x1:00 + 2x:30 and finished the run right at 60 minutes with a 1:00 stride. Average pace ended up being 7:30 as even the segments between the speed were a little quicker today. I found myself falling very comfortably in the low 7:40's as soon as I backed off the speed. It was a really fun run and looking forward to the speed sessions made the miles go by very fast. If I wasn't racing on Saturday I would have been tempted to stay out much longer. Good run!
