I'm not too old to learn a new trick!

Today's run was an easy 3.4 miles with a 9:28 pace.  My splits are below.  The first 1.5 miles are uphill.  The second 1.2 miles are downhill, and the last .2 is really uphill.  But this is really pretty typical.  The farther I run, the faster I get.  I'm sure there is a point of diminishing returns though.  Maybe at mile 4?  :-)

2	9:36	-16
3	8:51	-119
4	9:21	18

I plan on adding another 4.6 mile run on Sunday which will make this week's total around 16 miles.  The interesting thing for me is the Pace - last column.  It's dropping.  I'm getting faster.  I've never been fast, so to speak.  Fast is such a relative term.  

So my plan is to add to my Sunday long runs.  OK, honestly?  My plan is to have a long run.  Period.
