Saturday 3/10 workout du jour

I ran a 5.74 mile modestly-hilly route called the "Short Six" with my running club. It was supposed to be a race-level effort, although I probably did it about one notch below that. For most of the race, I paced off of a woman who's about the same speed as me, which worked well. I ended up finishing in 43:42, a 7:37/mi average pace. Not too shabby I guess, but well off the 40:33 I ran on the same course last summer. Including warm-up and cool-down mileage, I did about 8 miles altogether for the day.
