11 mile warm up
10 mile tempo
1.25 mile cool down
Met Logan at the DC to do my Marathon Training Loop or MTL. We kept the pace pretty chill on the warm up. Temps seemed to warm up a little quicker today and by mile 8 at my house we dropped some layers. Started the tempo wanting to just hit some progressive splits at just under tinman pace. I've felt crazy dead all week and yesterdays bad hip left me feeling kind of unsure about anything today. But the hip felt good on the warm up (with the heat patch).
First 2 miles were 5:48, 5:42 and the last two miles were 5:25, 5:25. Those are the only splits I remember. Avg for the 10 miles was 5:34. After looking up the avg I accidently deleted the run and other splits. Oops. But this ended up being a very solid workout on some worked legs and system. Glad to have Logan there to hit a solid workout. He helped pull me through the middle miles and had he not been there I'd maybe have bagged it at mile 5. Last time I did this loop and workout I hit a 5:41 avg a few weeks ago.
