This was a busy week and I knew that I wouldn't get a lot of running in so I left work early and came home and went running around 2:00. Left the house and decided that I would get a hard work out in, since I wasn't going to run on Saturday with kellie being gone. I decided that I would do a 2 mile warm up and then run a 10 mile tempo? I wanted to start at or around 7:15 pace and then drop with every mile. It felt really easy to run at the lower pace today, I really had to make sure that I didn't drop to fast and not negative split the tempo run. Average pace for the 10 mile tempo was 6:45, at mile 8 I decided that I would try and stay below a 6:00 pace, ave pace for that mile 5:49 :) I hate running on power house road so I decided that I would try and get off of it as fast as I could. Finished tempo run strong and then coasted in for a quick shower and then off to get the boys from school and the sitters.
I have not been running a lot of miles, but I feel like my work outs have been really good! |
