Hail to the victor...

Who Needs Gatorade?

Proud of myself...

I started my tempo at about 7:45 this morning, so it was a little bit warm, but I was determined.

I was very consistent and finished with a 8:39 average, with the goal being 8:35-8:40.

I wanted to stop and walk throughout, but I would not let myself, nor would I let my average pace creep above that 8:40 mark.

These are the kinds of runs that will get me to the finish line in under four hours.

Tuesday Speedwork and a Not so Tempo Run

I don't have my watch in front of me, but all 800's were approximately 3:31.

As for the Tempo Run: I started late this morning and the heat got to me. My finishing time was 1:02:12. Although this was a tough run, I did run the last 3 in roughly 25:30, which was more on target.

Looking forward to an early morning 13 with my running partner...

Tuesday speedwork...

2) 3:34
3) 3:41
4) 3:37

Did these at Tom Black Track in the burning hot sun. I think that's why I struggled with consistency. Too damn hot.
