Easy run to the micro hills with 10x100m strides on the way back. Rained most of the way back but we were already warmed up so it felt kind of nice.

My legs felt really tired and sluggish most of the run. I need to get back to doing tempo and intervals soon!

Ran with Raj from the LB YMCA. The plan was 2 mile warm up, 4 miles @ 6:55. I couldn't read the Garmin consistantly enough so our splits were way too fast and we pulled up at two miles and took a breather. We then did a couple hundred yards recovery job and back to the remaining 2 miles.Too hard a pace for where I am conditioning wise. Had we run the planned time we would have been fine.

 Splits were:

  1. 6:39
  2. 6:42
  3. 7:00
  4. 6:10

Time: 5:34 am  Total Time: 51:50 ( 7:22 avg)
