interval workout, bumping up 200 meters a week, did 600s last week so 6 x 800 this week. goal time ~2:50 ish
2 mile warmup to trackin the five fingers. ran the gauntlet of sprinklers in the cemetary. They use more water inteh cenetart per day than I use on my lawn all summer.
interval 1: 2:52 not bad
interval 2: 2:52 very consistent
interval 3: 2:52, and got stung by a stupid wasp that flew up inside my shorts, he stung me on my upper thigh, man that hurt, stupid wasp, I hate those stupid things. What did I do to deserve that?
interval 4: wasp venom taking hold... pain... 2:57
interval 5: starting to recover from wasp bite, 2:56
interval 6, still 2:56. tired. and red bite and welt. stupid wasp.

0.75 miles back to lab. I did this on an empty stomach as I had a doctor appt. afterward for a physical. Hungry and tired.

OK, need to drop those times down to a consistent 2:50 before I step up to 1000 meters...

tempo run. I'll call it a SMW (small-medium workout)
1.15 mile warmup @ 8:00

4.35 mile continuous tempo. splits are:
1 mile, 6:42 pace
1.05 mile, 6:42 pace
1.07 miles 6:56 pace , over the new bridge on 100 east, through the construction, up the river heights hill, slowed me down
1.0 miles 6:34 pace
0.23 miles, 6:20 pace
averages out to 6:42 pace over the run, little slower than I would have liked but I can live with it.

1.1 mile cooldown 8:17 pace

short FFF workout- that is a "five finger fun" workout. around USU quads, through the cemetary,  stayed on grass as much as possible.

left foot got a little sore at nine miles. iced it fast. still have that mild sore spot on shin, doesn't seem to be getting any worse, but I wish it would go away completely... debating running tou half for fun depending on foot and shin.
