At 5:42pm: Ran 6 miles in 52:32 @ 8:45/mile.  

Scheduled: 1 Mile easy + 4 Miles Tempo + 1 Mile Easy.

Ran the four miles tempo up front.  Then walked the first 1/8 of the mile five split and ran easy through mile six from there.  Of note, the sixth "Easy" mile was at MP + 16 seconds for 8:51/mile.

The four miles at threshold done @ 8:18/mile (in 33: 13).  A 35 minute run @ VDOT 41 threshold intensity would be done @ 8:16/mile.  So a little off from that…but will rate this as an “A” quality workout.  Did the scheduled four mile tempo portion without cutting it short.

The Garmin 110 arrived yesterday.  I wore it today.  This is the first workout I did with the 110.  Lot easier to read than the 305.

Great job on the tempo! You're hitting your times and you even picked it up a little bit on the last couple miles.

Glad you like the watch, I agree that it is easier to read.
