5K Treadmill Run in 22:33

5k Treadmill Run in 22:33

Went downstairs to run only about 15 minutes after eating dinner tonight. I probably should have waited a little longer, but I wanted to run before it got too late. I went down with the intention of running 2.5, but decided that I might as well up it to 3.1 (5K). With that in mind, I started the treadmill fast at 8.5, then gradually sped it up, finishing the last half mile of the run on 10.0 (6:00/mile pace). The run shattered my previous Nike Plus 5K record of 22:40. I ended up finishing the 5k run in 22:33 for an average pace of 7:14/mile. According to nikeplus.com, I burned 428 calories.
