Monday Pace Run

This morning was to be a 10 mile pace run for all fall marathoners and since I don't get off work until 7am (night shift), I ran this one solo......for the most part. Started with Bernard at 0730 and managed to keep a 6:30 pace for the first 5. I started feeling a little tired at that point, perhaps from the Grove run two days before so I told Bernard to go on so I could slow 10-15secs/mile. Reached the Mopac bridge at about 57min at which point I began to find an extra surge. Ran the last two miles in about 6:15, 5:45 respectively. A strong run overall, although at the time of this writing, my legs are tired. Total time: 1:08:23, 10.1 miles.
