Turnover Tuesday 

The workout today was 16 x 1/4 mile with 1/4 mile recoveries. I did the 1/4's progressive and not too hard to start. The idea was controlled and strong but still get a good stimulus in. Warmed up two miles. The 1/4's were: 78, 78, 78, 77, 77, 76, 76, 76, 75, 73, 72, 72, 70, 69, 68, 68.  Recoveries were all at ~7:45 pace. After the last recovery I ran a mile at tempo effort in 5:45 then ran an easy cool down. Happy with this today. I needed it more for the mental boost than anything :). 6:28 avg for the run.

Slept in today and woke up feeling good. Even better that it wasn't too hot yet so I got out for a run around my town. I left the watch on time of day and just cruised. I pushed a few sections of road and just enjoyed it. Fun way to start a day off. 6:50
