6 mile tempo, 6 min rest, 4 mile tempo. Targeting somewhere between half and full marathon pace. Mid 70's with a dew point in the low 60's, so I was wanting to pick up the pace a little bit.
First 6 miles went in 35:44 for a 5:57 average and all miles under 6:00. Took my rest and got underway for the next segment. I started off at 5:40 pace and felt effortless so I tried to keep it going. Unfortunately after a mile in 5:42 I struggled to keep it under 6:00 and went 5:55ish, 6:01, and 5:58 for 23:36 and 5:54 average.
So a big step in the right direction. It was incredible having cooler temps and lower humidity. Now I just need to train my legs to run fast again.
