Total Distance
7.81

7.81 in 1:05:09. Another attempt at a speed workout today.  Ran 2.5 miles to the Lehi track and then did 6 x 400 meter intervals with 200 meter rests inbetween.  I guess I figured if I could hit 1:30 on my splits then I would be happy.  Splits:

1-1:40 Not a good start

2-1:34 Getting there

3-1:32

4-1:27

5-1:30

6-1:25

Threw in some 200 meter intervals at the end and then cooled down with a little over 2 miles.  I think my body is telling me I need to back off a bit.  I've been extremely tired all week.  I may back off the next two days. 

#2 Wave Rider 10 Miles: 7.81

Good to listen to the body. I'm also curious - did you do this workout in the morning? I've noticed these type workouts are always lousy for me in the AM vs. later in the day.

Nice job!

Yeah Tom, I did it in the morning. I think I struggle in the mornings as compared to later in the day. I seem to just naturally run faster later on. I don't think I'm fully awake in the mornings.
