Ran Pittsburgh’s 10k Great Race yesterday and logged a new PR with a 42:38 chip time. I beat my previous best by over 2 minutes but feel like I can bring it down even further. Overall it was a great run, my fastest mile was about 6:35 and my slowest just over 7 minutes. I definitely want to run more of these short runs (5 and 10ks) and will be looking at a local Race Calendar to line some things up.

Total mileage was lower than planned last week because I held off on the long run to save myself for the 10k. I’ll be making up 16 miles tonight in preparation for this weeks build up.
