I was supposed to run a long run today with slower times, but I felt great and it turned into more of a tempo run. I went to my parents home in Hurricane last night so I could run in some warmer temps and avoid the snow and ice. I'm glad I did. It felt good to open up my stride and not worry about slick roads.
I started with 1 easy mile, then turned on the Garmin and went for the scheduled 10 miles. The pace I was shooting for was 5:50, slightly faster than last weeks run. I felt great and had no problem maintaining the pace. Finished the 10 mile course and did 1 more easy mile. Fun stuff. My body feels strong right now, much better than I was last year at this time.
Total Time (10 miles): 56:31
Pace: 5:39
