Really only 1 thing mattered about this run, and that is it
is the first time that I wanted to run in the last 7 days! That is a
good thing, because the week off came at a crucial time with a couple
goal races around the corner & the week off definitely hurt what I
have worked towards. I have some lofty goals, and I have
to say, right now I am a little intimidated about meeting them in the
month of July! Peachtree 10k is in 2 weeks, goal is to go sub 40, which is a 6:25 pace, so I
figured I would do some 1/2 mile intervals at race pace. First two felt
good, struggling at end of 3 & 4, and decided to drop back to sub 7
for number 5. Number 6 had a significant downhil (& some up), but
decided to crank one more out. Original plan was to do 7, but opted for
a longer cooldown, and save risk of collapse! Oh ... & I remembered after the 4th interval that I had a large steak & 3 beers at 3 pm!
