Went out just before noon. Two mile warmup, 6 mile HMP tempo run, 2 mile cooldown. I was missing the sun most the time as it was overcast for most the run but then it finally made an appearance toward the end. Body felt good but not great today. For fun I wore my super-light Asics Pirahna flats just to see if they did any better than the Adidas flats as far as blisters. Probably about the same but I think I like the Adidas better for longer distance as they don't seem to have as much wobble and they only weigh about an ounce or 2 more. I just need to remember to wear the right socks and maybe put a bandaid or moleskin over the problem areas for the race.
Ave pace for the tempo 6:26. Splits were 6:28, 6:30, 6:27, 6:28, 6:26, 6:16. |
