I paced Joel for his 1.5 mile time trial yesterday at 7:41/mile.  Given that, I decided to run a 5K today at the last minute and found a 5K in West Haven at 9am.

I was going for 7:45s.  I ran the first split fast and was sure to slow it down by the end and got a 7:23 for the first mile.  Totally on pace for the second mile at 7:44/mile pace.  The third mile was a bit tough and I got it done at 7:55/mile.  I knew I had the 7:45/mile pace in the bag at this point.  I ended up with getting the 3.13 miles done in 23:59 @ 7:40/mile pace. 

The official results will read 3.11 miles done in 24:00 at 7:45/mile pace probably.  I’ll have to check it out.  

Good knowing that I can on the spur of the moment get this kind of result. 

Two Tempo Runs in the past two days. 

I came in 38^th in a field of 247 and placed fifth in my division.
