Took Neasts suggestion and tried a 3 mile tempo run. Maybe I should've warmed up first! lol. Did 3 miles, 1.25 was on trail, averaged a 7:35 pace with 150ft vert.
Kinda slow... But at least I tried. Shins were a bit sore after. Must've gone too fast! Ha.
Apparently music like Eddie Vedder, Lou Reed, and Horse Feathers, which is great on long runs in the mountains, doesn't cut it for short tempo runs. If this is going to become a habit I need a separate playlist.
