AM - mile w/u + dynamics, 7 miles in 39:19, short c/d for 10
was going to be a long run today, but my watch was about to die at 5 miles and i'd gone out kamikaze pace anyway so i went for broke and closed with a 10:25 2-mile and called it a tempo.
splits: 6:00, 5:50, 5:42, 5:40, 5:38, 5:17, 5:08
avg pace 5:37. would have done a longer cooldown but my peroneal tendon felt a little sore. ran this at rodeo; probably can't do that anymore. it's a 1/3rd of a mile dirt/gravel loop made to run fast but it's shaped like a teardrop and that sharp turn isn't good for the legs. i've been running it clockwise since watches overmeasure loops run CCW, so rest assured the paces i ran last week were legit. anyway there's a 1.5 mile stretch of straight flat pavement close by that i can still hit up for fast repeats though. icing the tendon right now, didn't feel too bad but i'll give it a little rest
