10 Miles in Oyster Creek Park

I got to the park just after 7:00am. It stayed overcast for my whole run. I warmed up with a 5 minute walk and then tried 5:1's. That was too much, so I took it down a notch to 3:1's for the first 4.5 miles and that was perfect. I did intermittent intervals for the balance of the 5.5 miles and finished up in less than 2.5 hrs total, including potty breaks. I was very pleased. There might be hope for a 6:00hr Houston Marathon after all!
