Total Distance
6.00

2 mile warm up. Paces 8:06, 8:00 7:56 7:50

had planned for 4 tempo miles, held it for 3 miles Splits were 6:39 6:35 6:30... stomach started hurting, and really thought I would puke. Decided I better to slow down and finished the last mile at a 7:25. 

25 minutes elliptical.

Tomorrow I will run easy. Thursday I will get outside and do some speed on off's. Suggestions of what I should for that anyone? Then next Tuesdays goal is to hold my tempo miles at nothing higher than a 6:39 for 4-5 miles.

Nice tempo Lily! I like your goal for next week - gradual progress!

nice job with the tempo, lily.

15x1 min on/off is a fun one. or 3x5 min. or (my favorite) 1-2-3-4-5-4-3-2-1, or just 5-4-3-2-1.

Great job!! I like Allie's ideas :)

15x1 min on/off sounds like fun to me!!!

Great work Lily! Your consistency is definitely going to pay off.

1 min on/off's are perfect because you don't have to think to hard. The ladder crap is way to mathmatical for me. :)

You should switch your tempo & sw days and start doing sw with us on Tuesdays.

Nice workout! I think Allie is right we need to coordinate a treadmill race BYOT (bring your own treadmill) Hey we may be able to market this and make our claim to fame and money:) Im all for this. Who's in on this with us?
