Saturday 8 Mile Run

Ran up at the lake with the FFRC, big crowd this morning and ran with Bob. I told him I was going to be running a bit slower, which he agreed to, then he kept me going a bit faster than I wanted to, but not too bad and it felt comfortable. About 50F and foggy out, but felt pretty good. Did the figure eight plus the tail end running to the swimming pool and back. 8 miles in 1:14:46, average pace of 9:20, splits of 9:08, 9:15, 8:56, 9:46, 9:43, 9:31, 9:27 and 8:57. Average heart rate was 161, with the 6th and 8th miles having an average of 166, but still not too bad. Felt like a pace I could maintain for quite some time.
