Mile Repeats

It has come to my attention that I've been selling myself short. I've got some sort of wall built up around 10 minute miles - as in: I can't possibly run faster than that.

I have on occasion run a mile (or three) at under a 10 minute pace. But I've always considered it a fluke. Today, I intentionally ran mile repeats to prove myself wrong. Uh, ps and btw, mile repeats is a hard workout!

Mile 1: 10:00

Mile 2: 9:55

Mile 3: 9:49

hmm. It appears that I can do such a thing. Imagine that!
