6 x 1/4 Mile Repeats

Speed work, though just 6 x 1/4 mile repeats with a 1 mile warm up and cool down, and 2 minute walk breaks after each repeat. Goal was to have all the repeats under 7:00 pace, but first and last were a bit slower. First one because it was into a stiff wind, last one because I was tired. Was 81 when I left the house, so a bit toasty. Warm up mile of 10:02, then 2 minutes of stretching and 2 minutes of jogging at 9:02 pace, then 1/4 mile repeats of 7:08 pace, 6:58, 6:45, 6:50, 6:44 and 7:08, then a cool down mile of 10:13. Run was tougher than I thought it would be, legs are pretty tired, looking forward to resting up some before the marathon, so I need to have a few easy runs in a row.
