Running Cadence

Did a 6 miles run on last saturday. For the first time, i paid attention to my running cadence. When i started it, it was measured at 65-70 strides per minute. Then, i gradually changed it to 85-90 strides per minute. What i observed was that, my pace was more consistent and i felt i could conserve my energy better. I am not sure whether this is just psychological. I will need to monitor my cadence for the next few weeks.
Did some searching on the web and found couple of good links:
