I was listening to a techno station on Pandora during my run and the main lyric of one of the songs was "This machine kills ravers"...it stuck in my mind. Been needing this kind of a run for awhile...one where I surprise myself in a good way. Warmed up with a mile and a half, then set out to do a 5-mile tempo with no real goal pace in mind, was thinking around 6:40/mile. Turns out my legs had more than that in them today and despite temps in the mid-80s and dewpoint in the mid-60s, I averaged about 6:30/mile for the tempo section. Mile and a half cool down and then a cold shower afterwards. Very happy with the run.
