Felt good. Was planning to hit 6:00 for the first ten and then drop the pace… but felt comfortable and relaxed at 5:30 so I just decided to maintain.

I think my heart rate monitor was jacked — It was giving me a false high. 

Running a 1:13 on zero taper is a huge confidence boost. After today, I’m thinking 2:30-2:35 is definitely on the table in 5 weeks.

Key takeaways:

1. I need to practice taking gels at race pace. My hands were so cold I had a hard time opening them. So definitely lost 10-20 seconds on fueling.

2. Nike AlphaFlys are absolutely a cheat code. However they are absolutely tough on the calf muscles.

3. Half tights > Split shorts. Never going back.
