Mon - 12/14 - run 7.5 miles

Good run today. Supposed to be a recovery/easy run at about 8.40 pace. I went thru mile 1 in 7.59 and my legs felt like I was slogging thru mud. Mile 2 - 8.02, I really had to make a conscious effort to keep it down, not that 8.00 pace is fast. I picked up the last 1.5 to about 7.15-7.00 and ended up at 8.03 pace. Not necessarily the fastest I've ever run 7+, but probably real close and definitely the most relaxed.
