I just finished my second 6.29 mile Saturday morning.

I ran it in 59:04, 2:27 faster than last week. A pace pf 9:23 m/m.
I ran easy until a set point, that turned out to be the 18:20 mark,
and started the intervals. I did 1 minute faster than 5k pace and 3
minutes at about 10 m/m pace. I planned to stop a little more than
halfway through the run so I ended up running 4 cycles of at least 5k
pace. I then ran steady until the last half mile or so, and I that is
when I gave the finish my all.
I am not running a 10k until next February, and I really wanted to
train and run it in under an hour. I don't think that is going to be a
problem, as I still had more in the tank when I finished this morning,
and I am already running at my goal pace. Maybe I should shoot for
under 50 minutes, which would be better than my fastest 5k pace.
Have a great day.
