got after it today. hit the treadmill hard this evening, was frozen cuz of hiking all morning in the mountains near town. decided to drop a 4 mile tempo in the run to really get the turnover working. warmed up with a 7:17 and a 6:55, then hit these splits for the tempo:

6:02.5, 6:02.1, 6:03.0, 6:00.1

 

pretty easy to do steady pace on a treadmill, then last mile i bumped it up an extra tenth of a km.hr, 24:07 for the 4 miles, just under 6:02 pace, very good tempo, i felt pretty good throughout. finished with 2 c/d easy pace.

Got out 7 miles in some of the coldest conditions since we have been here, 14 degrees but strong winds making the windchill well into the negatives...fingers were frozen by the end. pretty 2 loops around the lake. splits:

1- 6:49.2

2- 6:49.2

3- 6:47.2

4- 6:34.9

5- 7:23.8 dropped off a lot here and i felt it for some reason

6- 7:17.0

7- 6:54.2 recovered to finish strong

total-- 48:35, 6:56.5 avg pace, overall a good run given the conditions, scheduled day of rest tomorrow

got after it tonight. Tempo run of 4 miles, did so on the treadmill as i wanted total control of the pace. felt great through 20 minutes, last 4 min were a struggle. splits during my tempo were 6:01, 6:02, 6:02 and 6:00 (with change) for 24:06, 6:01.5 avg pace. Very good tempo. its a good sign to hit the same exact tempo i did 4 days ago on sunday...the treadmill is nice for that. ill get out for 5 tomorrow and then 14 on saturday looking to slow it down on the LR

14 on the treadmill tonight...that was an experience...great workout, excellent runners high...not much scenery. it was nice to have a table to put my fluids and my gu. felt pretty decent throughout, hit steady pace obviously. 1:43:00, 7:20 avg pace. 22.6 kilometers all told, actually about .05 miles long but that sometimes gets lost in translation.
