Dropped 1 lb of brown sugar into 5g of store bought cider and pitched a vial of White Labs Cider yeast at 68F.

It's been 1.5 weeks and I'm down to about 1.028. This normal? I thought Cider was a fast fermenter.
 
Yeah 775. Honestly and embarrassingly, I didn't take an OG. I was just assuming that the yeast being over 80% attenuative and reading that cider would ferment down low meant I didn't really need to sweat it.
