Well we had a bit of rough night last night as Tia was sick through the night and today. In particular Kim didn't get much sleep at all between having a late church meeting that went well past 10 and her being the one to usually take care of Tia (since I'm mostly dead when I sleep). So the bottom line was that we had to scratch the morning run. Was able to get out about 11am at work and get in 10 miles. My legs felt really good today and I actually quite enjoyed the fartlek workout and the feeling of running fast (fast for me anyways). Got in 8 45 seconds repeats during the middle miles, spaced roughly a 1/2 mile apart but felt like I could have done more. Although I don't think the garmin is very reliable over 45 second intervals I thought I'd log the data anyway just for comparison purposes for future workouts. Looks I averaged around .15 miles distance for each repeat, mostly in the 5:15-5:30 pace range. Split paces were 5:35, 5:27, 5:31, 5:22, 5:19, 5:26, 5:07, 5:16. Ave overall pace for the 10 miles 7:41. |
