8 Miler

8 miles up at the lake, was windy and cold (upper 30s), so tried to run in the trees or with the wind when ever possible. Ran from the restaurant to the sailboat cove on the inside trail, then down thru the woods and out to the apartments, then back thru the woods to the over pass, then back thru the woods and around to the restaurant. 8 miles in 1:20:34, average pace of 10:04, splits of 10:06, 10:01, 10:05, 10:00, 10:18, 10:06, 10:01 and 9:52. Took short walk/water breaks every mile but the last one. Average heart rate was 163, 167 for the final mile. Felt pretty good, was getting tired near the end but not too bad, could have ran a few more miles. Time to sort out a training schedule for Phoenix.
