10:00 recovery pace. Hit the lap button & fell in about 30 yards behind a guy who passed ... after 0.4 miles his pace kept increasing & he started pulling away, so I backed off since I was on a recovery run & I wasn't going to be able to keep up with him anyway ... averaged 6:58 pace for 0.4 miles - wow, that was hard - I can't believe I once ran that fast the last 2 miles of a marathon!

Catching up. Heck of a run yesterday and glad you have a plan! Solid recovery.

I hate it when people ruin my recovery runs like that. The nerve of that guy to speed up like that...

Funny thing is Joe, after cruising behind him for a 1/4 mile, I told myself I could reel him in & then go back to recovery right after I passed him ... figured it would take close to a mile to do that & @ that point I could cruise til my watch buzzed & have a mile pr for this training cycle. As soon as I started speeding up is when he started pulling away ... by the time I got to .4 miles I was losing ground rapidly in spite of watching my application drop on my watch. I thought I would see him again as the river path ends, so it is a common out & back route for runners. He's lucky he went into the neighborhood at end of psth, cuz I was going to body slam him on his return.
