So this is fun, writing done this stuff.
Today I decided to do my own personal bomb run, and do a progressive 10 miler. the goal was to run conservatively for 5 miles then slowly pick it up for the last 5.
Started at runtex rside and ran the lake backwards,
mile 1 - 8ish
mile 2 - 7.05
mile 3 - 7.21
mile 4 - 7.23 ummm, i think i am supposed to be running 8's for the first 5, oh well
mile 5 - 7.25
mile 6 - 7.04
mile 7 - 6.43
mile 8 - 6.41
mile 9 - 7.06 wheels came off
mile 10 6.26 -
total time 70.51 -
average 7.05 m/mi
effort
first 5 felt moderate easy, 6-8 felt moderate hard but below threshold, 9 hard, 10 very hard.
can't believe how hard last two miles felt and yet how slow my time was. I felt like i was giving it 90-95% for last mile all for a 6.30 mile...
yikes i have a long way to go. My goal for the fall is to be able to run 6:15's on the trail comfortably.
I think i need to lift weights now.
Off to tucson to run in the desert for a few days.
