Ran 9 miles for a warm up in 7:12/mile average. Stopped a couple times to use the bathroom and get ready for a tempo section. 10 mile tempo section in 56:52 (5:41/mile). Most miles were in the high 5:40's but the last mile, ran in 5:03, brought the average down. My lungs felt just fine but my legs were getting a bit tight during the final couple miles. My hip flexors and joints were the main ones to be tights. Probably just from the bed the last couple nights. Finished the run with a 2 mile cool down in 8:26/mile average. Excited to race Pear Blossom next weekend! |
