AM: 77F, 85%. 11 @ 7:32 AP. Today was LT day. I'd planned 4-5 miles continuous at a reduced pace due to the heat/humidity, but could still only manage a 5k in 20:04. A 20-min tempo is ok, I guess, though it's hard to get too excited about a 5k that's slower than HM pace. So, I'll give myself a half-Workout Fail. This was workout #10 of my 5k block of training and the other 9 were successful, so I've still got a good percentage rolling. Anyway, this confirms what I said 3 weeks ago about the LT workout being the first to move to the TM. So let it be written.
PM: TM run (4.5 mi). I was irritated about my morning run, had my best flats in the bag, and caffeine coursing through my veins...deadly combo - so the normal stride routine was out. After a 2-mile w/u, I did 1 mile @ 10mph, .5 @ 7.5, .5 @ 11.0, .25 @ 7.5, .25 @ 12.0. Not a real workout but I feel better now.
