5 Mile Pace Run

5 mile run up at the lake - walking about a half mile before and after. Ran a bit faster than planned, but it felt fairly easy. It was about 70 out and sunny, so I was getting a bit warm as I got into it. Heart rate crept up , starting at 159 for the first mile, and getting up to 165 the last mile, overall average was 161. Splits of 9:29, 9:35, 9:38, 9:33 and 9:26, overall pace of 9:32. 3 miles planned for Friday morning.
