ORN: Maybe I shouldn't have, but today I did a tempo run at a target 8'30"/mile pace. Needless to say, I am happy with the split times below. All together, with warm up and cool down, I ran five miles in 45'35". I wanted to have one "quality" workout before I totally veg out next week. With this workout behind me, I've got five more to go [27 miles worth] before the marathon.
Splits:
- 10'04"
- 8'36"
- 8'34"
- 8'30"
- 9'48"
The workout itself was fun and a much-needed break from the day, even though I was hissed at by a goose.

ReplyDeleteok, since I had so many typos in my original comments, I started over. I've enjoyed reading about your training for the marathon and will look back on it when I start training for my 1st. I will be there after finishing the mini to cheer on a friend in the full and if I happen to notice you, you will hear some cheers from the guys at RunTheVille.com. Again, good luck!!!
