I woke up at 4am for a tempo, but high winds forced me to change things around a bit. Instead of the usual back and forth on the levee, I ran upwind 3 miles, then did 3x1 mile with the wind, 1 mile against, and the final mile with. I expected to be hitting 5:20s with the wind, but I was really sluggish today. Early morning, perhaps? I don't know. I was being pushed hard from behind while running 11 mph, so I estimate the wind was at 25-30 mph.
5:37, 5:33, 5:35, 6:26, 5:35
Yes, 6:26 against the wind. I know if was blowing hard, but that was still weak.
Aye. Two steps forward, one step back.
