Woke up with my calves and arches a little tight which made me a little concerned - however after walking around and helping the kids get ready for the day they loosened up a little.
Ran an easy 5 miles @ 7:30 pace on the treadmill this morning. Watched a History Channel show on Snipers.
Group Run from the store - Ran 3 mile warm-up then started the 6 mile tempo. This is how the tempo went:
1. 5:50
2. 5:55 - stoplight
3. 6:12 - gravel road - crossing part of golf course.
4. 6:36 - Bathroom Break
5. 6:30 - Heading up Dixie Dr.
6. 6:58 - Pushing up the hill but not really going very far, very fast
1 mile cool down back to the store. I was really excited about this run today before it happened. Little disappointed with having to stop and use the restroom and my performance the last mile. I think if we keep it up the times will keep dropping.
