Had an 8 miler today with a 10 minute LT tempo during the run. This tempo was going to be fast and it's always better with people so we had a good group of guys. We set out on the mosquito trail toward the river trail and we started the tempo on a downhill to get to our pace (5:05) the first half flew by and we were moving. First mile 5:10. Byron really pushed it and I was grateful for that, he's a stud. We got .95 of the next mile in the tempo. Our average pace for the 10 minutes was 5:13. It wasn't our pace but for this early in the season it was a very hard and good workout. Looking forward to do better on the next LT tempo. So excited to race!
