Tempo Wednesday

First off, on Tuesday I was supposed to do a tempo workout but couldnt get motivated after my dinner with Miles White so ended up just doing a very short 2.7 mile recovery run at 8:51.

Therefore, I had to do it on Tuesday. I wore the new shoes and they are stellar. Definately will hold up well for a half or marathon. Did 2.5 wu at 8:00, 5 tempo at 6:45 and 1.5 cd at 8:00 again. Overall pretty successful run. I wasnt sure when I started the tempo if I was going to maintain that pace for 5 but it was surprisingly easy and I still had gas in the tank.

I like this quote for this run:

“Every step you take beyond your limit is one step stronger than you were before.” -John Rhines
