Can't say I really have a goal. I'm just running because it's something to do. I think eventually I'd like to enter some trail races. Probably. :D

Bah. The third week I've done intervals now. Two weeks ago I did them at Presque Isle and stunk. I ran both the 400 fast and the 400 recovery too fast, and had to take some short breaks. Last week I ran 3+ miles of intervals around my neighborhood and did just fine.
I think the difference is that I'm very familiar with my neighborhood, so I can sense my pace a little better. At Presque Isle I'm still not familiar enough with the little section of path on which I run, so I just run it too quickly.
Maybe. Alternate theory: I've run at Presque Isle both times in the early afternoon. I feel pretty "good" at the moment so I push myself extra. When I ran around my neighborhood it was about 8pm, so I naturally took it a bit easier.
Anyway, I only ran two miles as intervals (4 x 400/400), then drove home and finished out the 3+ miles with another 2 x 400/400.
