Met Riley and Jason bright and early at Kneaders parked my car then drove up to Bues trailhead on 46th where we met Matty and Denver. I was doing my last semi-big workout today before UVM. Riley has been nice enough to alter his runs for me to be able to get my workout done on something similar as UVM.
Warmed 4K with the group. Jason and I was doing the workout and everyone was going easy.
Once the workout started Jason lasted about 4K with me then bailed. He did the Lewis Peak run on Monday and was pretty hammered.
Workout was 10K @ MP, 1K cool, 8K @ MP.
Avg pace for 10K was 3:27 per K or 5:33. 8K was 3:27 avg per K or 5:33 so perfect pacing today.
Workout went fairly well, though I wasnt feeling the best today. Legs felt heavy and tired but the mentality going in was that if this is what I am going to feel like the last 10K of UVM then doing this workout will give me the confidence that I can still push thru tired legs.This micro-cycle has been a great motivator and feel that I can run with anyone at UVM.
1K cool down
