Yes, it's "2 a day Wednesday" for me so I ran this morning. After seeing how hot & nasty it's going to be this afternoon, I decided to try to get the tempo run done this morning before work. We got out at 4:50am. I put most of the hills in the first 2 miles & of course I went out too fast. I ended up taking a few short walk breaks to get my heart rate/breathing under control. I definitely went out of my comfort zone a bit. This is supposed to be "comfortably" hard. ha! Ugh, so much for an evenly paced run.... This afternoon will be a 4-5 mile "recovery" run.
5.67 miles (I went over what I was shooting for....) 8:49 pace
Mile 1: 8:57
Mile 2: 7:58
Mile 3: 8:28
Mile 4: 9:45 (big walk break! ugh!)
Mile 5: 8:27
.67: 9:32 (uphill finish)
