5 miler

Did my scheduled 5 this morning. Wasn't too sure how I'd feel after yesterdays speedwork, but I felt good, to my amazement! Walked outside, turned on the Ipod.. nothing! Dead battery!! KAIDEN!!!! Grrrr.. Stuck it in the mailbox. Great.. 5 miles in silence. Headed out with a water bottle and belt strapped on and all it did was bounce around and drive me crazy.. dropped it at the end of the block. OK so now I'm 0 for 2.. I'm wondering how the run is going to go at this point!! It was a little misty but it felt good and I actually had a good run. The silence was actually nice.. it was very quiet out and i'm supposing that's because it was rainy so the birds weren't chirping. Got lost in my thoughts and had a very quiet peaceful run.

Splits:
Mile 1: 10:13
Mile 2: 10:08
Mile 3: 10:14
Mile 4: 10:00
Mile 5: 10:12

A little slower than last weeks five but I'm blaming that on the speedwork yesterday..
Obviously I haven't brought these Wednesday runs down to marathon pace (10:18) which they are supposed to be, but now I'm wondering if I should..will have to talk to Bill about that.
