4 mi tempo

6:53, 6:53, 6:48, 6:38

I was targeting 6:55 but felt strong and was able to speed up

I've decided to only do two stress workouts a week: a speed workout and a long run. I think it will better suit me and my ability to recover and also not get injured. It's not worth it to push your body really hard for a few weeks only to get sidelined with an injury and not perform during a goal race. I can't expect to hit my potential in one season. Be patient.
