Upcoming Race: Fila Relays

This friday is the Fila Relays. I'm running with 3 other guys from work. My worry is I'll really hold them up because 1) I haven't been running in at least a month due to injuries, 2) I have no idea what my race pace might be.

This morning I went on a trial run. I decided to run the distance I'd go, 2.5miles, and try to keep an aggressive but manageable pace. I've been battling shin splints, and I didn't get but a few hours of sleep (damn you internets!) last night. I did just about everything I could to delay leaving the house this morning. Overall I'm not too disappointed. I did have to stop once due to shin pain, but I was able to finish strong and on my starting pace.

My Pace At Each Marker
Mile 1	9'25"
Mile 2	9'57"
Mile 2.5	9'45"
