2.01 Mile Run in 13:00

2.01 Mile Run in 13:00

Got in a 2 mile run on the treadmill this afternoon as the premature darkness was setting in during our beautiful New England winter. I decided to get in a little speed work after my long distance training of the past several days. I started the treadmill off hard (8.8) and continued to work it up by about 2/10ths at every half mile interval until I was hitting 10.0 during my last half mile. Besides taking one quick break to stretch, it was an honest 2.01 mile run in 13:00 for an average pace of about 6:28/mile. Definitely my fastest couple of miles in a really long time. After the run Tiger Woods congratulated me on my fastest mile split to date via the Nike + celeb personalities. Not sure if this was my fastest mile ever, or just with the new chip - I'll have to do a little digging.
