4.2 miles pushing my little ones in the stoller. 40 degrees is warm enough to push right?

Hoping to get out later for some more miles.

5.36 miles when Riley got home in the rain.

Workout Wednesday 3x2mile fartlek 6:25 pace/7:25 pace 1:36/1:50. I switch from fast to easier every 400 m. 

Set 1: 1:32/1:46, 1:32/1:48, 1:36/1:50, 1:36/1:48 2 min rest

Set 2: 1:34/1:48, 1:35/1:48, 1:33/1:50, 1:35/1:49

The last set I switched and went from slow to fast so I could finish on the fast interval

Set 3: 1:47/1:36, 1:50/1:35, 1:51/1:34, 1:49/1:34

It was hard to get through the last couple 400s, but I'm glad I hit the paces I wanted.

We were supposed run 15 miles today. It ended up being an accidental 19.3 mile long run. A miscalculation caused us to run an extra 4 miles today. The run gave me a big boost. It was probably my best run of the 2015. I did an 8 mile tempo in the middle of the run. Splits 6:40, 6:40, 6:43, 6:49 6:55, 7:28 (struggled in the Canyon wind), 7:00, 6:45. I'm happy with my first longer tempo. The overall run AP was 7:26. Only a couple weeks ago I was doing a 15 miler with Angie and Sariah and really struggled with 7:30 pace. Today I felt much stronger before and after the tempo.
