As the workouts shorten in length the next two weeks, I am trying to focus more on speed in my weekly runs. Today I ran 7 miles in just under an 8:30 pace which is the fastest run of this length I have done in a long time. I actually set my Garmin Forerunner up with a virtual training partner set at 8:45 pace and I obviously finished ahead. I felt really good except for a very sore left knee. What is even better about the run is that the course is pretty hilly with a couple of grueling 1/2 mile hills thrown in.
