Nice morning today with temp around 60, cloudy and light wind. Didn't feel the best this morning. I woke up last night with stomach problems and was still a little quizzy this morning. Decided to continue with the plan to do 5 x 1200 today with a 400 recovery. Goal was to run them around 6:08 pace. Did a warmup and then started. The first one was a little sluggish getting going but felt good on the second and third. The forth one I was losing it on the last lap and slowed down and then struggled on the final one. Here are the splits: 1st - 4:34 (6:05 pace) 2nd - 4:32 (6:03 pace) 3rd - 4:34 (6:05 pace) 4th - 4:38 (6:10 pace) 5th - 4:41 (6:14 pace) Would have liked to be able to hold pace for all the repeats but was still glad that I completed the workout. It will be something to build on. |
