Today I did a tempo run. It was a very windy day. I went out to Lake Hefner to figure out my route. The wind was blowing out of the north. So I went from Louies parking lot and ran into the wind for 2 miles as my warm up did my streches out on the dam and started my tempo as the dam turned towards the west. I felt good but ran into a sworm of wasps out on the dam but I was in the zone so I trucked on through them and continued on my tempo run. As the road started back to the south I had the wind to my back and thats all she wrote. I felt I was flying. I finished my 6 mile tempo run on the east side of stars and stripes park as the trail heads back north. The last quarteer mile was in the wind but I was feeling good and I pushed through no problem. My times were 6:11 6:07 5:59 5:54 5:52 5:46.
My hip was real sore yesterday night but after a nights sleep it not hurting right now.
I'M RUNNING TULSA RUN NO MATTER WHAT.
