2 easy at 8:30, then 12 at -3% decline (6 at 6:40, followed by 5 at 6:35, last 1 at 6:30).

 

I like my new Mizuno Elixir 3s (blue ones) which I have worn this week.

 

Foam roller after.

12 miles at under 6:40 pace, that's cruising! and you're already over 66 miles for the week... way to go!

Thanks Cal, if the miles weren't downhill I would be much more stoked. I feel right on the fringe of being close to 3:00 given the downhills, but am not confident.

yeah, i feel like i'm right on the cusp for sub-3 myself. maybe if everything falls into place on race day...

I'm thinking you both have it in the bag. Paul, if you can run these training runs this fast, it seems to me you will be totally fine. Best of luck.

I might try to fit a workout like this one in before SGM...
