Morning run, sunny, temp 55-59

I was feeling pretty good this morning but started off on my old man pace. After a few miles I decided I wasn't an old man and I wanted to run faster. I ran an out and back with the 1st five miles up hill slope and then back down. On the 1st 3 back down I decided to give the legs a test. I averaged 6:01 miles for the 3 miles, then I glady mellowed out to 7:00 minute miles.

My 2nd leg of the WBR is 8.5 miles with the 1st mile up hill and the next 7.5 steep down. The race calculator predicted me to do it in 5:59 average. After doing todays 3 mile tempo run at 6:01 I think it will be difficult to do it, but I'm gonna try.

Time 70:50, Mile avg - 6:59

I had that leg in last year's relay and I averaged 6:38/mi, 2 secs/mi slower than the estimated pace for me. I think 5:59/mi is definitely within your reach.

Where do you find the race calculator?
