First "workout" in quite some time.  I've mixed in some nominally harder efforts on runs, but tonight was another story.

1 mile warm up, 2 miles tempo, 1 mile easy, 2 miles tempo, 1 mile cool down.  I was shooting for 6:50.  Splits ended up 6:58, 6:53, 6:58, 6:35.  I used a straight, flat, 3 mile section of legacy from Parrishto Glover.  

I used my phone for gps, and a garmin would be better, since I only get pace feedback once per mile, hence the marginal pacing.  I gave myself a headache.  I'm taking that as a good sign.

Nice job Kam. It's tough keeping tempo with just the phone, but an interesting pre-GPS challenge.
