Ran my typical 5 mile route (Riverbottoms to 3400 East, Canyon to 1700 E then home).  Finished in 45:11 (9:02 avg).  Splits were 9:08, 9:30, 9:26, 8:51, 8:17.

I didn't really "push" at the end, though my pace got faster.  Part was a function of coming down hill, the other part was that it just felt good to let myself run at a faster pace.
