How soon? Well, it takes some time to build the endurance (months) but it's nice to know the speed is there.

I thought you're faster Mark! Weel, if you do it "without much difficulty" surely you will hit 6:00 soon. Thomas (Former Rubbish) mentioned in his Dublin report that for faster pace we use different group of muscles. This is a true statement, up to the sertain level. Guess that helped you. 6:19 my limited English tells me that it’s your PR (?) I thought you’re faster Mark! Weel, if you do it “without much difficulty” surely you will hit 6:00 soon.

Running fast for those six or so minutes was really energizing AND restful in an odd way. That really was what I was after on the run: To mix it up, have some fun and perform a little test. I also didn't push to an all out effort + I did take it fairly easy for the rest of the run. :) Ya know, the funny thing about it, Anne is that doing that little race was really …FUN!
