Personal:

Pride necessarily sprouts and grows; a pride that can only come from relentless kneading of unwilling flesh, painful months of grinding and burning away all that is heavy, all that is strength-sapping and useless to the body as a projectile. --John L. Parker, Jr., runner/author

Rainy and windy this morning, so I took the tempo run inside to the treadmill, at noon, in the gym on the 27th floor of my office building.

Interesting run today, and I'm not sure how I feel about it. I just know I was completed wiped out by the time it was over...and I'm not sure that I should have been.

After 1 Easy Mile and 1 Mile at slow MP (6:58), I ran 4 Miles at 6:18/mile. After a 90 second walk to recover, during which I drank about 8 ounces of gatorade (gym was really hot and stuffy today), I ran 1 Mile at MP (6:40) and a 1 Easy Mile to fully recover. After another 20 second gatorade break, I ran 2 Miles at slow MP and MP, respectively.

10 Miles total, 2 Easy, 2 at slow MP, 2 at MP, and 4 at just below my TP, which is approximately 6:20/mile. Total time on treadmill, including 2:00 minutes of walking recovery during the workout, was appoximately 70 minutes.

Nice workout! Maybe you just had an off day, I know I get them.
