It was cold this morning (8 degrees with -3 wind chill). Planned on some tempo miles but wasn't sure how my body would respond in the cold. Warmed up with 2.25 miles. Started the tempo run and I felt slow and really had to focus to keep a decent pace. Ran it in 6:34 and was surprised that it was that fast. Started to warm up during the second mile and felt a lot more comfortable (6:20). Continued to chug along the third mile and ran it in 6:14. After the first mile, I felt very comfortable and didn't feel like I was running as fast as I was. Cooled down with 2.75 miles at GA pace. Total Time = 58:26 |
