Five miles on the agenda for today, with the goal of keeping the pace under 8:00/mile. Did well under that, but it felt right, so be it. Would like to continue to do a faster run about once a week, but eventually over a bit of a longer distance, contingent on how long the long runs on the weekends are.
Mile splits:
1 - 7:48
2 - 7:22
3 - 7:20
4 - 7:13
5 - 6:35
Ran 5.0 miles @ 7:16/mile pace.
AHR/MHR - 155/171
Paved roads.

Upper 40s, mostly cloudy, breezy.
