Ran 5.1 miles in 43:01. 8:26 AP. Ran to Concordia, down to Chicago Ave, and back. Mile 3 and 4 I picked it up to what I perceived as marathon pace (around 7:50/mi). Roads were icy and slushy, so more effort was required for the slow pace.

Mile Splits: 9:07 (w/drills), 8:49, 1:05, 7:31, 8:30, 8:59.

At my mom's, ran 8.15 miles total at marathon pace. 7:50 AP. Ran 5.1 miles to the bike store to look at bikes, then 3 back home. 

Mile-Ish Splits: 7:45 (0.96mi), 7:30 (1mi), 8:00 (1mi), 8:47 (1.1), 8:00 (1.1), 8:15 (1mi), 7:45 (1mi), 7:35 (0.96mi). 

Felt really good that I could pump out 8 miles at that pace. Previous time I did a 7-9 mile run, I was at easy pace of 8:30s or above.
