7 mi in 55:43
Felt really great today on the Brookwood Manor loop with 14 x 30s fartleks at around 6:20 pace with 1 min recovery at 8:05 pace. Went out for 10-12. The 12th fartlek was 45 seconds because I thought it would be a good way to end a strong run. Since I was feeling really strong still, and since I wasn't struggling to hold form during the fartlek and since I wanted to get closer to 2 miles for a cool down, I tossed on 2 more fartleks. Still felt great running the last 2.5 miles at near 8 min pace. Good run today.
