Speed workout today at the Redmond HS track. 6M@ marathon pace followed by a 10-12 minute easy jog then 6x1 minute hard/1 minute light. Then a mile cool down.
Pretty warm again. 70+ degrees. First 4 miles felt fine. Practiced taking water at 1 and 3 and again at 5. Managed to do that very well getting 8 ounces down each time. But Mile 6 I just didn't have it and dropped to a 5:23 mile...five seconds off pace. I just felt tired which is not a good sign. It was a little discouraging but I will reserve judgement until after Saturday's race simulation workout. |
