AM - 13 miles. LT Efforts: 2 x 20 minutes (2 min jog). Average pace was 5:06/mile for both segments, with a bit of a trigger finish on the second one. Tempo loop. 2.5 up, 2.5 down.
Not a huge improvement over the last time I did this, but an improvement nonetheless (~3 sec/mile). I probably should have waited another day or two for this session (heart rate has been a little too low this week), but I'm headed to San Diego for a couple days (work meeting) and I thought it would be unfair to do this at sea level. Kristen gave me an awesome list of places to run from my hotel in Del Mar, like here. So I'll get a couple nice days of sunshine running along the coast, then start a new block of workouts next week.
PM - 7 miles. Mostly on trails in Torrey Pines beach / park. Longer than a typical post-workout shakeout but google this area and you'll understand why :-)
