This morning I was going to do my tempo run, but I didn't wake up early enough to get it done. I ran 2.5 miles. I later went out and did my tempo run. I tried to find a good spot on the Provo River Parkway, but the spot I went to wasn't very good. I remembered it from Cross Country camp, but it was more uphill than I remembered. It was at the base of the canyon. I decided to do a three mile tempo run. I started out pretty hard, but then settled into the pace after about 200 meters. My first mile was about 5:27. It wasn't too hard, but it was more uphill than I thought. The second mile was about 5:33. I turned around half-way. I pushed it more the last mile, and it was about 5:10. I'm not sure on the splits, because my garmin had a bad signal, so I had to use the markers. But the total was about 16:10-16:15 for three miles. This run was pretty good, but I felt pretty bad. I was tired and didn't really feel up to it. But for feeling bad, it was about as fast as my last one.
