Notes: I wasn't sure how this mile would go since I hadn't been having much luck with speed. I made my goal to break 7:30 and be consistent. That I did with a 7:28 (by my watch) and quarter-mile splits of 1:53/1:54/1:55/1:46. It was really hot, and it was over fast. I finished feeling a lot better than I did when I went faster last year, so I think I could've performed better. I learned a few weeks later that the endurance/speed/HR problems I'd been having all spring were due to a medication I'd been taking. Having learned that, I'm pretty pleased with this performance as well as the others from Spring 2015.
