Total Distance
8.50

Tempo day.  2 mile warm up out towards Saratoga.  Stopped and stretched for a bit and then got in to my tempo.  Plan was 5 or 6 at marathon pace (6:40-6:50) hitting the JRP and coming back home via 700 South.  Very flat course. 

Splits: 6:36, 6:39, 6:31, 6:36, 6:39.  Avg for tempo was 6:37.  It's like I get so scared I'm not going to hit my times that it makes me run faster.  Oh well.  I had to work at it this morning pretty good to keep myself going. I think if I could just relax a bit more and slow down maybe 7-10 seconds more that I would be a bit more comfortable.

Cooled down with 1.50 back home.

PM Elliptical for 25 min

Black Launch Miles: 8.50
