Slept in and ran at 5:10 instead of 4:20.  1.5 mile warm up, 4 0.5 mile repeats and 0.5 cool down.  Repeat times:  3:31, 3:29, 3:53(the Garmin robbed me), 3:29.  I was running with the virtual partner and was a comfortable distance ahead of pace when I referred to my watch and was suddenly an insurmountable distance behind pace.  It must have robbed me of some distance because by effort that 3rd repeat was the fastest.  I wore a long sleeve shirt this morning and it felt great.  I love this weather, however, I don't like that it represents the impending winter.  I have never done a lot of winter running.  If I'm going to keep up these miles and increasing them little by little I'll need some more winter gear and fix my tread mill.

nice work on those repeats. I'm convinced those make a quicker runner.

Yah, last year I was just trying to put in miles, and I didn't even do that very well on the way to TOU. I've been doing the repeats for the last month and half and seen huge improvements.
