4.5 mile tempo run to the Lady's house. Apparently it's only a 225ft altitude gain. My route went through downtown, giving an average pace of 7:47 (7:45, 8:02, 8:00, 7:52, 3:43) but an average moving pace of 7:25. I was surprised that I felt like I was pushing pretty hard to stay at that pace, esp on the long hill. Surprised because it doesn't seem like that is much faster than I've been feeling comfortable doing on easy runs.
