I ran out towards the Payson Park, out and back it was a beautiful morning, I was even able to wear shorts! I decided to do some striders after I warmed up and then when I got to the hills I was going to push hard up each hill and then recovery for about a 100 meters. Then in the middle part of the run I wanted to do some tempo miles and I was able to do that, my tempo miles went like this; 7:33(151), 7:41(155) a little up hill on that one, 7:19(161), I then did a cool down. My average pace for the run was 7:57 with my heart rate at 153 and my total time was 56:41 I would have to check but I think that might be a PR for that course:-) My legs felt really good but the true test will be how will they recover for tomorrows run, I hope they will feel good... I hope to do Harry's Hill this week, not at full speed but at least do it and then do it every other week to strengthen my quads. I also did my upper body weight training on the Bowflex, one set of each exercise with 12 to 15 reps for each set, well that's about it.
See ya tomorrow.
