I knew that Tempo Tuesday was going to be put on hold this week because Shantell ran 20 yesterday and Tara is racing Des News tomorrow. Still wanted to attempt some slightly quicker miles this morning so I stuck to the planned routine. Drove to the LPT and warmed up 2 miles. Wasn't positive if Kam was going to be there so I waited for a couple of minutes then started my tempo miles. Decided that I wanted to run 4 miles at lactate threshold. My plan was to hold 6:50/mile the entire run. Not a punishing pace but definitely a good, solid effort. Probably my true lactate threshold pace right now. Hit every mile at 6:50. Had to make some corrections during the second half of miles 3 and 4 as I started both of those a little too fast. Cooled down with 2 easy miles. |
