Objective
WU
9 mi. Tempo @ 7:27

This one turned out pretty good. I need to break down the splits but I think they were tightly bunched. Satellite reception may have given me a little extra mileage over the final .8 mi.

A 3:15 marathon breaks down to a 7:27/mile pace. A subjective test is to run that pace and see how it feels. I felt fine over the first half and struggled a little over the back half.

This test is far less scientific than Monday's Yasso 800's but at the very least it sets a benchmark for the next few weeks.
