I did a LONG TEMPO run tonight.  6.47 miles @ 8:19/mile.  I was going for 8:30s but was getting 8:20s.  So I just went with it.  Done was the first four miles in the 8:20s range.  Nailed Mile 5 @ 8:04/mile and mile 6 @ 8:16 mile and closed out the last half mile @ 7:59/mile.  It’s so easy to negative split these short distances.  Someone please explain to me how to negative split the marathon distance.

Anyone who can answer that question should win a Nobel prize!

Jake, have a question for you. On your blog home page you have links to your races. You changed the title of the link to the name of the race (as a result, the link title is much shorter that the actual web address where the race report is located). How did you do that? I have yet to read your race report by the way...I will get to that. Congrats on 2d place though.

You can highlight the name of the race and then click the Hyperlink button (it looks like a little globe) and paste in the full URL address of the race report.

Jake, Hey thanks. Under my short term running goals, the links look a lot better now. Thanks for teaching me about that function.
