Total distance for today's run is approximate. Two mile tempo run at the track; Michelle was nice enough to pace me.
(I got my measuring wheel in the mail last week but haven't been able to mark off a 3 mile flat course in quarters yet. Hopefully before next week's tempo; I do prefer a tempo workout on the road to one done on the track.)
The goal (Sasha's recommendation) was to do 2 miles, or as many laps as I could, at an even 1:37 per lap. Things went fairly well and next time I'll up my tempo to 3 miles. My body's still fighting a cold, but doing a pretty good job at holding off some of the yuckier symptoms.
Warmed up for 25 minutes.
Quarter mile (splits/laps):
#1 1:39 (not quite fast enough...pick it up a bit)
#2 1:36
#3 1:37 (exactly where I'm wanting to be)
#4 1:37
Mile 6:29
#1 1:37
#2 1:38
#3 1:38
#4 1:37
Mile 6:30
Cool down with Amber for 30 minutes (Michelle finished her tempo and joined us the last few laps).
