I would be a decent runner if I got up every morning and started the day with a 7 mile run. Felt pretty good this morning, pace was still slow but the coughing was reduced still not gone but getting better. Hoping to do a tempo run this evening. Big Workout #13- Tuesday Toquerville 10K Tempo I'm starting to feel a little better, but I was still worried about this workout. It has been awhile since I've tried to push the pace, plus I was still worried about the temperature being a bit on the warm side to be doing a tempo run. I was also concerned because I wanted to do 6 miles of tempo instead of my usual 5. Sunny was kind enough to drive me out to Anderson Junction. I started by running 1.5 miles out on the frontage road, then turned around and ran back .5 miles stretched a little and then started the tempo 1-6:25 This mile seemed mostly uphill heading back on the frontage road toward Anderson Junction 2-6:00 (12:26) This mile has some downhill, then a good hill to climb, then some downhill 3-5:43 (18:10) Nice gentle downhill 4-6:12 (24:23) Rolling going through Toquerville, not feeling too good at this point 5-6:14 (30:37) Short uphill coming out of Toquerville, then gradual downhill 6-5:59 (36:37) Good downhill, but not really feeling it. .2-1:19 (37:57) Average 6:07, Did two miles easy home. Overall, a good workout. I did struggle a little coughing and seemed to be spitting up stuff more than normal. I would like to try to do this workout a few more times before the marathon. Good day of running.
