7.0 on the TM. This was my attempt at speed work. I want to start doing this at least weekly to try and tap into some fast-twitch muscles (if I have any). Did a one mile warm-up and 1 mile cool down. Did 1/2 mile repeats with 1/4 mile breaks inbetween where I ran at about 8:30 pace. First 1/2 mile was at about 7:20 (not fast, I know), next was around 6:50, next was around 6:30, next about 6:18, and then I did a full mile around 6:44 pace. There may have been some other 1/2 mile repeats in there as well, but I can't remember too well right now. My attempts at speed seem to bring all my aches and pains to the surface, but oh well. |
