Today I went 2.5 miles in 15:41. 6:16/mile pace. Pretty good. If I can hold that pace for a longer distance, I can do pretty well in a race. I just noticed today that West Peachtree Street has a long, gradual hill, starting from just south of 10th Street and running to about 5th Street. If I push that stretch, I can get in some strength training at the end of the run. This would make me a stronger runner in the later stages of a race, which is what I need.
I'm going to get in another short run tomorrow, then my 3.5 mile run on Wednesday. Thursday I will take a rest day, and Friday will, once again, be my long day, if I can get in to the gym a little bit early.
