What better way to spend your 38th birthday than doing a long tempo cutdown run. Yippee!!! After the embarassing disaster that was Wednesday's workout I didn't want to wait until Saturday to redeem myself.
The workout was a 10M tempo with the first 6M at 5:36, the next two at 5:16 and the final two at 5:08. I did them all on the track to help me stay mentally focused.
First 6=5:33, 5:33, 5:33, 5:33, 5:30, 5:33, 5:35
Next 2=5:16, 5:16
Last 2=5:07, 5:07
A really solid workout especially after laying such an egg two days ago. The thing I was most pleased with was the pacing. After the first mile, I only looked at my watch every half mile rather than every quarter.
I LOVE my new ST 5 Racers. |
