It was back down to 15 deg again but with no wind so not to bad. I ran a 2 mile warmup at 8:24 pace then did 3 miles of fartlek. I started with 1/4 mile at 6:28 pace with 1/4 recovery. Then 3x1/2 mile at 6:45, 6:46, and 6:35 pace each followed by 1/2 mile recovery around 8:00 pace. Then 1/2 mile cooldown. The sun was starting to warm things up a bit and I wanted to keep running but figured I had better keep it short with Painters 3 days away. Overall pace for 5.5 mi. was 7:46 |
