I try and do my "long" run on Sunday, and went a bit uptempo during the 9.84 miles.  I have a loop that is 1.23 miles down at the Little Valley soccer fields and schools.  I wanted to run quick today, and break my PR of 71 mins 22 secs there.

I ran 8 loops, and my per loop times were:  8.30.46,  8.39.24,   8.37.50,  8.31.41,  8.34.02,  8.30.09,  8.33.10,   and 7.57.13 on my last one.  I didn't feel so good on my first 3, but after that i was into a good rhythm and felt ok.  My total time was 67.52, new PR, pace of about 6.52 per mile.  It is all on grass with so-so footing, so i was very pleased.

Cheers
