Beautiful morning today with temp in low 50's and light wind. I planned to do 3 mile tempo today. This is the first one I have done in awhile so trying to get started on some real training. I didn't feel great this morning. I was sluggish and the legs felt dead starting out. I ran 2 miles to warm up but still didn't feel much zip in the legs when I started the tempo. The first mile was a struggle just trying to get going. Started picking up some on the second mile and felt better as I went along. Stayed around the same pace for the 3rd mile. Not too bad for the first tempo in awhile on tired legs. Feels good to get some speed back into my running. Interested to see how quickly I can get back to a respectable pace. Tempo miles were: 7:09, 6:53, 6:52 45:43 (7:37 avg) |
