I probably should have skipped the Monday Tempo....but I felt good and thought maybe I'd benefit from some faster miles on fatigued legs. 2.5 mile warmup, 5 mile AT tempo 6:53, 6:48, 6:44, 6:39, 6:35, 2 mile cooldown. 9.5 total/71 minutes I felt okay and kept it pretty light but this was definitely a bit of a risk coming off of a race. There is a fine line between getting a good workout in on tired legs and digging myself into an injury cycle/hole. I'm still trying to learn it... I plan on taking the next 2 days super easy and then a LR/workout on Thursday.
I really need to decide if I'm going to do the Half Marathon or 10K in Pheonix.
PM: 3 miles easy on SF river trail, 8:40 pace. I felt so good which was weird because usually I'm exhausted on PM runs.
