running 2:04:23 [3] 16.2 mi (7:41 / mi)
Low 50s and light wind. Did not check my watch until 4 miles, thought I was running 8:15-20 pace, but was at 7:49. Tried to maintain the effort which I did until 13, then I had to work the last three miles to maintain pace. 5 Mile splits: 38:54 (7:47s), 38:21 (7:40s), 37:58 ( 7:36s) then finished in 7:37. Last 1/2 marathon was 1:40:17 - 2 minutes faster than I ran at GB 1/2 last year and carried the pace for another 3 miles.
Probably should not be running this hard, but this is the type of running I enjoy.
238 miles last 31 days - not a calendar month, but a month worth of training
