I chickened out about running outside. It was colder than yesterday (but hugely less windy). And since it was my last day for the gym, I went there to ask some questions. The run was pretty good. I warmed up for 10 min at 6.5 pace, then did a ladder workout. 2 min. hard, 2 min. easy. I started at 7.0 for hard and went by .5 up to 8.5, then back down. My easy pace was always 6.5. I did this pretty much for the next 30 minutes, except at first I was going to do the last 4 minutes at 6.5 pace. Instead I did 4 min at my last hard pace (7.0) and finished on an easy 2 minutes. |
