I used to have one pace: as fast as my feet would carry me. This strategy finally led to a substantial mileage cutback, because recuperating after a run became an issue. Old habits die hard, and I admit I still end up with negative splits on most of my runs, but I’ve decided to slow down, enjoy myself more, and not end up gasping for air the whole time.
Gotta run...

OK, here's a question: what are negative splits? You know, I"m not a runner (except when I'm chasing my kids) or anything, but I think I'd have to give a thumbs up to less gasping and more enjoying.
it means the second half of the run is faster than the first.
Enjoy your runs. Although gasping for breath is kinda fun.
