Decided I couldn't wait until Wednesday to run again, and ran 3 miles on the treadmill. Warmed up for the first 1/2 mile at 8:30 pace, then slowly increased every 1/2 mile until I was at 6:30 pace. Ran this for a mile, then slowed back down. Total time was 22:10. The run felt good. I also feel like adding these tempo sessions in the middle of my runs will help my cardio fitness as well as train my legs to run faster. |
