9.74 1:15:26 158/182 - 4 mile tempo.

1.24 10:26.1 139 to TOU finish

0.2 1:45.6 140

8:18.0 151 26-25 end WU

2.0 14:04.1 169 25-23 - supposed to be tempo, but a little slow...

6:31.7 172 23-22 - a little better

6:34.3 177 22-21 - pushed it here (thought if I had eaten anything, I'd have lost it) but time doesn't show it...

1.3 10:57.1 162 - CD

8:56.8 154 - gradual climb then downhill 0.2?

7:52.3 152 - downhill 0.2? then flat

I think that if 6:35 is my tempo, then I might make 3:10, too bad I was shooting for a 6:10/mile...

I was going to do 15 miles at MP+10% but decided last night that my knee would be better off if I didn't.  This morning, when I woke up, I decided that I would be better off if I at least ran a little.

I woke up 2 hours before my run, ate 1 banana, 277 calories worth of oatmeal, then went back to bed.  I drank about 14 oz. of water right before running.  Last night I decided to go a little later than I would normally go to have a little more heat.  I also ran with a shirt (I usually only do that when I'm on a treadmill).  The cloud cover kept the heat around, so even at 6:30, it was still 75 degrees at the start of my run.  It was a warm run!  After, I tried soaking in the ditch in my front yard - it was freezing but worth it.

On my run, I took with me one Hammer Gel (100 calories), 8 oz. of water, 24 oz. of Gatorade (150 calories), and one PowerBar Creamy Citrus Fruit Smoothie Energize Bar (210 calories).  I ate the gel, 1/2 the PowerBar, drank the water and half the Gatorade.
