Z3 most of the way, which is kind of misleading given the splits involved. I also haven't done this run in a while. In spite only doing a Z3 run, today marks my third fastest time on this course and I wasn't particularly trying to kill myself on this run either.
Today was a run to make up for not running distance in the last few days. I decided to try to grind out about 80 pushups and 80 situps beforehand, but that was largely transparent by the end of mile 3. That's fine, but I need to figure out how to try to get around that in less than ten minutes (part of the conditions of the physical fitness test, which I take Wednesday).
I keep thinking I should probably have done some speedwork before then, but I doubt I'll do it tomorrow and any later than Sunday is probably too late. Just my guess.

I don't feel so bad about doing what I thought was just a Z3 run and running consistently below 8:00/mi.
