6 miles in 1:07:28. Can I take 7.5 minutes off my 6 mile pace in the next year?

12:10/ 12:02/ 10:46/ 10:24/ 10:54/ 11:05

Perceived Effort - uphills 7-7.5 downhills and flats 6-6.5

Taped the foot before the run and used my new insoles. It was nice to get out and run. Focusing on eating well - so that means I'm hungry and need to adjust my caloric balance.

Hopefully I will get to the gym and do an hour on arms/core in a couple of hours.
