Progressive tempo workout today. I was not looking forward to this run, even though it was cooler today finally. I have been tired and I haven't really done any speedwork all year. I did two 1 mile repeats, one half mile, and one 1/4 mile with less recovery after each repeat. I did a loop around the Cove pond down 6400 W and Main to 5600 W and home on 13400 and 4800 W. I Ran over to the Cove pond via Leila instead of Roserest. When I hit 3 miles I did a tempo mile. The wind was whipping good on this one and I ran a 5:43. Recovered for a mile about 7:50 pace, all of my recoveries were about that pace, and did another mile this time with a cross breeze 5:21. Recovered for a half mile and ran a half mile in 2:38. Recovered for a 1/4 mile and then did a 1/4 in 1:15. Ran a mile home afterward. 7:10 pace for the run. Felt ok in the speed, but had a hard time breathing through my mouth the entire run because I am still congested. |
