Big Workout
Or at least I tried. Wasn't feeling great today. I should probably have postponed it until tomorrow. I had a tight hamstring all day yesterday and today. It wasn't letting me really get the legs moving today. The workout today was 8x3 min at CV pace (5:40) with 1:30 rest in-between then some Tinman tempo miles after. I ran the Millville hills loop the correct way then continued on TOU course. 3.5 mile warmup @ 7:20-7:30 3 mins at the following paces -
- 6:52 pace (up-hill)
- 5:30 (down)
- 5:49 (rolling)
- 5:24 (down)
- 5:47 (rolling)
- 5:47 (flat)
- 5:45 (slight down, then flat)
- 5:46 (mostly flat)
That put me at mile 21 of TOU so I ran to 23 trying to go 6:20 pace. I went 6:17 then 6:24. I half-heartedly ran one more but ended up at 6:35 so I was done and ran home with cooling down at ~ 7 min pace. Overall, I am sure the long run Saturday affected me quite a bit. The hammy loosened up a bit, but it will take a few days to work the kinks out. Another workout in the books even if it felt like I was just punching the clock and not doing anything special. Easy day tomorrow is in order. T-1:42:30 (6:50) 155 ave 173 max
