Finally, I have made up my miles and even made up the interval workout that I missed. I ran 10.5 miles today. I started the run with seven 800s. I was supposed to do six, but my fifth was a fail. I was going uphill and couldn't keep the pace, so I did a 7th to make up for it. My goal pace on a track would be 3:30, but I wasn't on a track. I created a workout for my garmin to alternate .5 miles intervals with .25 mile recoveries. One interval was a complete fail. I gave up. Four were under 3:30. One was 3:32, and the last was 3:35. My recoveries weren't too long, and I'm satisfied with the paces.
I didn't have much to eat for lunch. I did have a scoop of Ucan before I left, but I know it wasn't enough. I packed some tailwind, but I struggled for the 5 easy miles home. Those easy miles were tough, I'm looking forward to a no pressure trail run tomorrow.
I ran a double today, starting with 3.25 easy this morning. After work, I ran .75 on the TM before heading to the track where I ran (6) 800. I wanted to run them all under 3:30. Most were on pace. The recoveries were all a little long, but all the recovery laps were under 4:00.
