a 10 min. mile pace

Wow.

I averaged a 10 minute mile today at the gym.

I ran around the track, and if I calculated correctly I was running a lot of my laps at a sub-10 min. mile pace. Which is crazy.

But I was on fire! I didn't let the guys running behind me catch up to me, although he came close a few times. And I passed a slower runner who was plodding along.

I did a lot of sprints, with my fasted 1/13 of a mile (yes, that's the lap at the track at the gym) at a 7 minute mile pace if I calculated it correctly. Which is crazy! It didn't last that long -- about 33 seconds.

But still.

Distance: 3.5 miles.
Time: 35 minutes.
Avg. Pace: 10 min. mile.
Conditions: At the gym's track (counter-clockwise)

5 mins. ab work.
