Single: I didn't sleep well last night but managed about 6-hrs of "down" time. Got to lab by 6am and did a bunch of set-up to finally get out the door at a little after noon. Initially I was thinking about splitting today up and doing a track workout but once I got moving I changed the plan to some MP work. My main focus was each mile a little harder for 4 mi taking full advantage of the course topography. That being said I did one of my usual runs into Memory Grove, I just kept going to the temple for the extra distance. I did one mile warm-up and then started the "pace" portion. The first mile has equal up and downhill with the down coming first, 6:12 HR 158, nice and easy. Then the next mile is the firehouse mile and I started to pick it up, 5:53 HR 165. The 3rd mile is the "cheat" mile into Memory Grove, 5:49 HR 167. At this point there were tons of people around and I really started moving. This last mile felt effortless it was nice to float a little. It is also pretty aided, 5:32 HR 177. Then I just turned around and climbed all the way back to lab... Overall it was a beautiful running day. Right knee is still a little tight but still no pain. Mi 10-T2 Avg. 7:24 HR 156 Asics
