HOT!! I think I should've started earlier here. Did pretty well stopped at 4ate a half protein bar, drankmore water.
Stretches a little. My 6.25, honestly I was "done", stretched a bit more,grabbed more water, and finished with more walk jog pattern. I could feel a little bit of irritated "Peri" but wasn't going to quit completely.....
So it's 8 miles where you are alternating regular easy pace and moderately fast pace every other mile.
So it would llook like:
1 mile easy
1 mile moderate(nothing crazy but sub 12:30 effort would be good)
1 mile easy
1 mile moderate ...and so on..

So 4 miles are pretty easy and comfortable with more walks and 4 miles are harder.

I think at this point you know what patterns help you to run faster, so I would try to keep as most running as you can in the faster miles with very short walks.
I don't think you have to set your watch for certain patterns. The main thing I'm looking for is the mile splits.

But just take one mile at a time and please try to get some fuel in you maybe at mile 4 and plenty of fluids throughout!
