My legs where still alittle tired from yesterday's workout so I only did one mile at marathon pace as opposed to two. I started off faster than I wanted so then I tried to slow down as close to a nine minute mile as I could. It was alot colder today than it was yesterday and Monday so I had a hard time getting loose, my splits went as follows; 8:20, 8:43, 7:16, 8:42, 8:41, 8:48, 8:35 total time was 59:12 with an average pace of 8:27. Two of the miles were to fast, mile one which was a warm up, and mile seven which was a cool down the rest seem to be slower but it is hard to get my legs to go that slow (a nine minute mile). Tomorrow I am going to try harder as it will be a recovery run, so I am really going to try and get my splits around the nine minute mark for all seven.
I also did some upper body weight training and some core training for 40 minutes, tomorrow I hope to do some leg training but I will see how the run goes first.
See ya tomorrow. |
