Six Mile(s)

I was going to run yesterday evening, but it was SOOO hot here.  So I got up early this morning and went for it.  I woke up a little after 5am, and was wide awake so I got ready, ate a banana and put on all my gear.

Last week I didn't like my fuel belt water bottles.  Just didn't feel right.  So I bought a new CamelBack.  It was ok.  I didn't love it.  The tubing was a little funny... so a bit after I got going I had to stop to get all that figured out.  I think my time would have been just a teensy bit better if I had figured all that out before I got going.

That being said, this six miles felt MUCH better than last week's four.  I did a little more warm-up as suggested by Mike and maybe that helped.  All I know is that everything went better than last week.  The pace was similar to last week and coincidentally, the pace at which I did most of my marathon training.
