Ran my 2x1 mile repeat workout again this morning after yesterday's off day and it went pretty good. Started of with the usual 2 mile warm-up a few stretches and then off for the first hard mile. My form felt good and the weather was in the low to mid 60's with a good dose of humidity but not to over whelming. Ran the first mile in 6:05 and thought I felt strong and that I could run a second today in probably about the same speed. Stretched a little in my 3 minute recovery and then was off for interval numer 2. Felt strong through the first half mile and pushed it up the slight hill from 0.5 to .075 marker. This hill was definitely a little tougher the second time around but I pushed it in and finish repeat number two in 6 flat. Felt strong the entire way and definitely didn't have any help so I'm feeling pretty good about the 8k in just over a week. The goal is to be as close to 30 minutes as possible and do better than the 32:54 from 2 years ago. I feel like I have more speed then I did at that point so hopefully we have some nice weather.
