When you do speed work, you get faster!
It's amazing...I spent all that time this fall in 10 min/m land, and now I'm back down to an easy(!) 9.
Plus, I did my 8 hills today and they were all significantly faster than 2 weeks ago (yep, same hill).
Pretty freaking cool.
I'm considering doing the New York Road Runners Hot Chocolate 10 miler, but I also have to visit some relatives this weekend and then Monday is final exam day, so I just have to make sure I don't make myself crazy with signing on for too much. On the other hand, the registration fee is $10 less if I sign up by 5 today. So, I've been staring at the registration page for the past half hour, unable to decide.
In any case, I'm damn pumped about the whole getting faster thing...I'll never be super-fast, but it's always nice to see improvement, ya know?

Send me some of your speed, ever since the 50 miler I am stuck in double digit land :(
Yay! Fast is fun! :)
that's awesome. it's fun to get fast.
good luck in the race....
There's nothing wrong with 10m/mile pace. But 9m/mile is nice, too.
