Good Tempo Run today (10-26-09)

Ran on the Katy this afternoon--about lunch time. After a one mile warmup and water stop, I then hit it hard for a good Tempo. I wanted to go out and back for 10 miles, then a one mile cool down.

The weather was overcast, in the mid-40s, slight wind. Here are my splits:

1. 6:38
2. 6:16
3. 6:16
4. 6:25
5. 7:08 (a bit farther than a mile for this one)
6. 6:23
7. 6:32
8. 6:23
9. 6:11
10. 6:25

Then had a good mile cool down in 7:22. Total time was 1:21:49 for 12.4 miles.

Oh, by the way, saw "Rocket Girl" for the first time in a long, long time! And yes, she was hammering it! We high-fived as we passed. But other than that, almost had the trail to myself minus a few walkers...
