Tempo run. 2 x 10 minutes at 6:50 pace. Solid first segment, but struggled second segment with stomach upset. Five minutes jog in between tempo segments. Cold and windy didn't help.

Fartlek-type run down Park Street and back with 10 x 1 minute pickups at 5K effort/pace. Most ended up being around 6:00 per mile or faster with the last two closer to actual 5K pace.

Threshold run. 2 x 12 minutes at 6:45 pace with three minutes slow jog active recovery. Tough headwind for the second segment. Pace felt a little more appropriate than last LT run the previous week. Flat course out Park Street and back.

Down Glendale past Stage Road and back. Into headwind on the way out and with wind/into sun on the way home. Picked it up to 7:20 for miles 11 and 12 and then 6:45 for the final mile. Hard effort on the final mile, but the pace felt comfortably hard rather than truly difficult.

Fartlek with 15 x 1:00 pickups at 10K to 3K pace. Treadmill felt very smooth, although I hope it's calibrated accurately.

2 x 2 miles tempo run on the treadmill set at 6:44 pace and 1% incline. Very sweaty, but legs and lungs felt good. Tedious by the cool down of course.
