a new concept of an easy run?

Ok so I went out for my nice and easy 5K this morning. I ended up with 3.42 miles, which is whatever, but I did it in 29:18 or an 8:34 min/mile pace. Huh?

I was supposed to be running 9:30's! I felt AWESOME (and slowish) on the run, and I think that has to do with the fact that I have not been running hard lately.

Looking back at the past two weeks and the low run volume, I think that was actually a good thing in the end. This is because of the blister on my right foot. I have been allowing it to heal! Duuuuhhh!!!!

Everything works out the way its supposed to in the end.
