I didn't have a lot of time today so I drove down to the track for a quick 2-mile run. I figured I'd give it all I had and see if I could better my last time of 14:52. I wanted to approach 14 minutes because I'd like to run the 5k next month at about a 7min/mile pace, but that might be ambitious - we'll see. I hit the first lap on pace but there was 20mph wind on the back stretch that was giving me fits. I crossed the mile mark at 7:11 and didn't look at my watch again - I just wanted to finish. It turned out to be a personal best training time but not quite as low as I'd hoped. I've been pushing it hard the past couple days though and I think that should be taken into account as well. It will all be clear on race day.
2 miles - 14:39 (7:19/mile)
