I ran my marathon paced workout tonight: 10 miles aimed at 6:43/mile. It was quite cold (25 F), and my pace was all over the place. I finished the 10-mile portion at 6:40/mile average. It's a bit fast, because it corresponds to 55.5 VDOT value, but it's not a huge difference, so I'll take it.

Note that I ran this 10-miler faster than my 10-mile PR. I crossed the 10-mile line at 1:06:37 (my PR is 1:06:49), and this was not race effort. That PR is soft; it makes me want to run the Papa John's 10-miler in the spring.

I'll take my rest day on Wednesday, and shift the workouts by one day. It's because high temp on Wednesday is predicted to be 17 F. And that's for 7AM, after which it will be steadily falling.
