Met up with Travis and Michelle for a COLD early morning run. The temp in my truck said 8 at the church and it got up to a balmy 10 by the end of the run. We ran 3.5 mile warmup and then started our 3 mile tempo at the corner of 5 mile square.
mile 1 6:16
Mile 2 6:14
Mile 3 6:08 ave pace 6:12
Michelle, Travis and I are so close in pace that it makes these tempo runs fun. I felt great through mile 2 and then at mile 3 I started to get a sick stomach. My kids were up all night throwing up and I think that I kind of had a sick stomach. I ran about these same splits in st george 3 weeks ago and it seemed easier down there??? I felt like I had some left in the tank, but the stomach issues kind of sucked. Legs felt great and the lungs were pretty good considering the cold temps. Can't wait until next weeks speedwork! |
