8 Mile Pace Run

8 miles up at the lake in the morning. Felt pretty good, was doing a tempo run and figured I should see about going a bit faster. Splits of 9:48 for the warmup mile, then 8:36, 8:40, 8:41, 8:51, 8:44, 8:52 then a cool down mile of 9:25. I took one walk break before the 6 pace miles, then one break about half way through that, and then a break after the 6 pace miles. Ended up with a 1:11:41 overall time, 8:57 pace, 8 seconds off my 8 mile record. AHR was 164, so though I was pushing it, I probably could have been pushing it more.
