1 mile recovery at 8:58

1 x 3 miles: 6:52, 6:50, 6:43

You negative split both sets which shows you finished strong and in control!

The negative splits also indicate that I just wanted to get it over with haha!

Haha, yeah, our heads can be our biggest enemy or maybe in this case, greatest ally for an awesome run.
