Total Distance

4.00

I will be climbing Mt. Wire/Red Butte in the morning so I wanted to keep my legs fresh but still get in some cardio, so I went to the gym to run on the TM. I started off at a nice easy pace, but decided I better do some speed work since I haven't done any lately, so after a nice comfy 9:00 mile to warm up I did 8:20, 7:40, and 7:05. The last mile I dropped to a 6:40 pace for half a mile and it almost killed me. I tried to hold it, but I was hurting, so I slowed down for the last half mile. I obviously need some work.

or maybe you're still recovering a bit from that crazy 50 mile run you did!

I 3rd those opinions Scott. It's only been a week and half, might still be a little tired. Nice job pushing it on the tm, hope the peak bagging went well.

Yeah, you guys are probably right. On my run today my legs felt so heavy and it was hard to get them moving at all. It might have been the worst run of the year for me.
