Not quite easy run + 5 x 10 sec. hill sprints. 7:52 am, 36-44° F, 28% humidity, winds calm, sunny. I started out with Spanish Flea again like I did last Wednesday, but the random songs after that weren't as good as last Wednesday and I did not feel as strong as I did last Wednesday. I did the old 6 mile route that I used to do all the time. It has the big hill I talk about all the time in it. It was in roughly the 3rd mile today. I followed up the 6 miles with 5 10-sec hill sprints. The weather station I looked at before I left said 31°F, so I wore two shirts but skipped the ear band and gloves because I knew it would be warming up. I'm not sure how accurate that 31 was, because halfway through the run I took the outer shirt off and I was wishing for a short sleeved shirt at that point. I think the weather stats I've posted above are more accurate. In any case, it certainly did warm up a lot during my run and it was very sunny. AP for the first 6 miles: 10:03. Splits: 10:27, 9:59, 10:11, 9:43, 10:04, 9:53.
Pace on the hill sprints: 7:46, 8:15, 7:19, 6:50, 6:23.
