5 mile tempo on the Columbia River trail on my old route I marked off. My marks are wearing off, but the paint is still visible. This was supposed to be 6 miles, but I got a little carried away in the middle miles and found myself pushing the limits of tempo pace, so I cut it short. Mile splits as follows, 180 turnaround every 2 miles: 5:32, 5:26, 5:23, 5:32, 5:28. 27:20 final time. |
