The plan called for 10 miles with 5 miles at LT. After a weekend of eating garbage, I woke up a little nauseous and didn't feel like running fast. Started the run with 3 easy miles then started the tempo run. I was hoping to just keep the pace in the 6:30's. First mile was 6:32 and felt really comfortable. I was surprised at how good I felt. Second mile was 6:24 and third mile was 6:25 and I felt really good. The last two miles were 6:18 and 6:12. Average HR for the tempo run was 161. It was one of those days that reminds you of how good running can feel. I will have to remember this on the days that running feels like a chore. Finished by running 2 easy miles to cool down. |
