AM - did not run this morning, as I didn't get enough sleep. I had a hard time getting to sleep last night, in spite of getting to bed at a fairly decent hour.
Lunch - 6.25 miles on the treadmill. Started off easy warming up at 8:30 pace, then bumped it up to 7:30 pace after 1/2 mile. At the 1 mile mark, started a MP tempo run (6:53/mile) forthe next 5 miles. At the 6 mile mark, I bumped it up to 6:00/mile pace to finish the last 0.25 miles. All in all, a pretty good run, although it felt a little bit harder than it should have. I hope that I will be able to get to bed early tonight so that I can start running in the morning as well, but we have decided that if I don't get to bed by 10:00, then I can't wake up early to run in the morning, so I have to put forth the effort to get to bed early enough. |
