Clocked a mile in the morning at an 8:33 pace which is flying for me. I was considering calling that good, but went for a 3.5 mile jog this evening after dinner. Legs felt good and loose, but my shoulders were really tight. I tried to focus on relaxing my shoulders and then just gave up and went with it. Jogged out to the 1.25 Mile Marker and back.
21:14.00 (Out) 20:41.71 (Back) = 41:55.71
I've figured out that traffic lights and traffic play a role in my times. While my return leg seems a little faster, I ignored the lights and darted across the streets while traffic was far away. Probably took the same amount of time for both legs once you factor out the wait times at the stop lights since traffic was heavier to start the run.
