Great, Coco! (and I really love the mile 5 pic!)
What an awesome pace! You will definitely be under 2 hours for a half at that pace. I would increase mileage on long runs to at last 12 to 13 miles for the half and keep up with the tempo runs and speed work and I bet you will do great!
Doing a half isn't that much harder than a 10 miler. For my last couple of half marathons, I'm pretty sure I actually haven't ran longer than 10 miles in a training run. The last 5k of a half marathon is more mental than physical. Feel free to email me anytime.
