Speed Work. 6 x 1 Mile repeats

I did my repeats at Gibbons Park today -- just 13 days until the Road2Hope marathon in Hamilton. Here are my splits:

7:11
7:07
7:06
7:07
7:04
7:05

I was happy with tonight's runs. The weather was cool - around 6 degrees C. I was tired by the end and could probably have done another repeat if I really wanted to -- but I didn't. I was targeting 7:10 per mile at the start so my average of 7:07 per mile is fine. And I was particularly happy that my last two repeats were my fastest.

With my gimpy right leg, I'm not as fast as I was back in the summer -- but I'm definitely improved over September.

May thanks to John Deputter and Marc Labreche for being pace bunnies tonight!
