eyeglass/boot at 1036 with cool weather.  5 miles done in 45:35 at 9:07 pace per mile average with 137 bpm at 79% MHR for Easy (GA) run.

Recovery Run scheduled for today which is 10-1030 pace and < 76% MHR.  But I ran 9:07s for an Easy (GA) run because ten minute miles are I think a bit too slow.  At the end of Mile 5, there was an incline.  I wanted to see if I could maintain the pace going up the incline...had been at 9:57 and got the pace to 9:52.  So pace can be maintained uphill...but I would imagine for short distances...How long could I maintain an even pace going up without exhausting self...will need to test that out.

Splits: 9:18 (121), 9:08 (137), 9:10 (137), 9:06 (139), 8:52 (144).

Tomorrow have a long run scheduled - a 12 miler.  Am considering doing the last 8 miles at 8:37 (MP).  The idea: Can I sustain even MP splits for Mile 5-12?  Test it out.

Your run looks like Stonehenge.

I try to be creative. Must admit your title sounds better than the eyeglasses and boot root.

Good job, hope your run today goes well.
