Better workout today, but still not where I would like to be. I once again had Sunny drive me out to Anderson Junction. I figured I would not try to run a 6 mile tempo, but settle for a 5 mile tempo, and I also figured since it was still well over 100 degrees I would only do 1 mile warm-up instead of 2.
1-5:58 Started at Mile Marker 6 this was a big improvement from this mile last week. Last week I ran 6:23 on this mile, granted I had already done one mile of tempo last week at this point, but still.
2-5:45 Last week was 6:00
3-6:11
17:58 (5:59 average)
Like last week, I only made it through 3 miles, then I stopped
However, unlike last week after I gave myself a few minutes to try to recover I attempted two more miles.
1-6:52 this mile was hard and I struggled to get going again.
2-6:03 All I was wanting to do on this mile was be done.
12:58 (6:28 average)
Anyway, not the best workout, but at least I felt a little better than last week. I also did a lot better on the 2 mile cool-down home. In fact I was able to run most of the way home, this of course was after I went and laid in the creek for awhile to cool-off. |
