8 mile run - up tempo
I felt good this morning when I did my run. It was nice and cool at 6:30 a.m. when I left the house. I think the temperature really helps in terms of my energy level. I still have problems with pacing myself, as evidenced by my splits. Chip said to try and keep it up tempo, around 9:40 per mile. My splits were: 9:17, 10:03, 9:30, 9:29, 9:22, 10:02, 9:41, 9:00. Even though my splits were not consistent, overall they were pretty fast, so that makes me happy. Total time: 76:41.

I just checked and August 3rd I ran 8 miles with Dad at the lake in 78:25. I have cut 2 minutes off my time in just 3 weeks!
That's a 9:35 average, so that's good. Strong finish last mile. I'd have liked to see you run a bit more consistently though.
