AM: 73F, 85%. 7 mi total. Ahhhh, workout fail today. This was attempt #2 at a 2 + 4x1 @ 10k. The last attempt was also a fail and I swore I'd move the workout to the nice climate controlled gym, but with the DP only at 68 this morning, I went to the track. After the 3rd lap, I was already falling off pace so switched it to 6 x 1. After a 6:12, the next rep was 6:18 and took an incredible amount of effort. I actually did several cartoon-like double takes as I'd check my splits every lap..."wait, whaAAT?" Wow, I ran so much better just 1 week ago; conditions were a little tougher today but still reasonable. Anyway, pulled the plug, broke into a walk, then did my standard jog of shame: sad, right-hand circles in lane 8. Might do a mini-workout on the TM this afternoon.
PM: mini-workout on the TM, 5 mi total. 2 mi w/u, then 4 x (.25 @ LT, .25 @ 5k-3k, .25 ez). I used 9.7 for LT, 10.5/10.6/10.7/10.8 for the 5k-3k, and 7.0 for ez. If you understood all that, you are a running nerd.
