Long Run In Today

Lovely morning today.  Left at 6:50.  Did the first two miles at a good clip because I noticed these tend to be slower and I wanted to come in under the 8:05 overall time.  By mile, the pacing was: 7:51, 7:52, 7:47, 7:49, 7:52, 8:00, 7:41, 7:58, 7:46, 8:00, 8:06, 8:04, 8:29.  Overall time was 1:41 and overall pace was 7:56 - so a good 9 sec/mile under my goal.  Still have doubts about running 7:50s for 26 - but at least i'm on target with the plan.  Pacing certainly is easier with the nice dry weather.
