Early 64/100%, nice morning to run, mid 60's feels great this time of year. Going to my nephews graduation party this afternoon in Cleveland so needed to get it in early. Big Workout for my week- 3 Miles Warm up, 7 Miles tempo (mostly sub MGP) 7:31, 7:22, 7:08, 7:11, 7:09, 7:10, 7:16 - 2 Miles recovery, then 11x500m Intervals with 1 Minute recoveries (yes, odd number and odd distance, was aiming for 2 min at a time) Pace- 7:02 - legs wouldn't move!, 6:42, 6:34, 6:52, 7:17 (steep incline), 6:47, 7:02 (hills), 6:59 (getting tired). Not quite as quick as I would have wanted - I was looking to be in the 6:30-40 area, but I will take it today. 2+ Miles cool down, was going to make it 20 today, but paced my 10 year old instead (the better choice) - we got slushies after, she loved that. Some of you are racing today! Hoping for the best! |
