2.25 m. up w/ strides, 8 mile ab/tempo, 2.25 m. down. I ran this on my 4 mile tempo loop in Clinton. I haven't been feeling real well (cough and little bit of a sore throat) so I was just going to run this as more of an aerobic builder than a tempo. I did well running a more relaxed pace for the first 4 mile lap, but then I couldn't hold back for the 2nd loop and ended up pushing harder than what was probably wise. Average pace for the first 4 miles was 5:39. Average pace for the next 4 miles was 5:25.
