It felt better than usual today. I kept a constant slow pace and I was able to go fast for the last minute.

I also think I could run for longer. It all seems to be falling into place!

I might try to go a bit quicker in run 2. I will see how I feel on Friday.

I still can't believe I can jog for 25 minutes without stopping! I really didn't think it would be possible for me.

That is great news. You are doing the right thing by having a spurt at the end of your run if you have the energy. If you try it at the beginning of your run there is the the risk of burning out before the end of the run as it is harder to gauge your energy expenditure at the beginning.
