I subscribed to Bones in Motion, a service available on my cell phone to track my pace and distance.

Gain: -3 ft Date: 08/01/07 Up/Downhill: [+193/-196] Time: 05:15 PM Difficulty: 2.6 / 5.0 Weather: Fair 85F temp; 63% humidity 90F heat index; winds E 8 Performance Distance: 6.02 miles Goal: 6 miles Time: 1:12:20 Speed: 5.0 mph Attained: 100% Pace: 12' 00 /mi Calories: 0 Notes Ran the tempo a bit faster than intended. Planned on running 10:59 minute/ mile for 3 miles. Looks like I ran 10 seconds faster for at least 2 miles. I started my tempo at 1.5 miles and ended at 4.5 miles. This could have thrown off my timing. I thought I was running less than 12:00 min/ mile for the first mile. It felt real slow. I guess I'm getting faster so what I sense as slow is changing.
