CIM Training Week 4, Day 2: 3 miles

You may have noticed that so far my Tuesday and Thursday runs have been 3 miles. This is part of Hal Higdon's Intermediate I program, of course. He specifies that they should be easy runs as well, but I've been having a hard time not running them at race pace. The runs that are to be done at race pace are the longer, Saturday runs, but I feel inclined to run these that pace as well. As the program progresses, I might feel differently.
