Visible Breath

Ooh, Visible Breath would be a good band name. Or even a good song title. I'll have to think about that one.

This morning was nice and cool once again, and even on the way back when it had moderately warmed up I could still see my breath. The conditions favored a good tempo run and that's exactly what happened. I started running at the one-mile mark, and the splits at miles 2, 3, 4, and 5 were 9:12, 9:03, 8:54, and 8:35. Not too bad, and I never felt winded or like it was a hard effort at any point during the 6-mile run. Overall pace was 9:22, which involved warm-up and cooldown mile bookends. A good effort, and even though it was early it was still nice to get the run in before the day started.
