Just a Little Bit Faster

Well, I certainly wasn't in shorts today as I logged a quick 5 miles. After a major tempreture change today, I was back to running in the 30's with a little bit of snow.

I pushed really hard today in an effort to get a little bit faster. I did the 5 miles in a total time of 39:34. I ran each of the first 4 miles in exactly 8:05 and the final fifth mile in 7:14. Sweet! I think that is the fastest final mile that I have run in a long time. I feel good but tired (legs were a little wobbly for a couple of hours afterward). I am also really looking forward to my long run on Sat. I am not as fast as I want to be, but I am finally making strides to get there.
