Wednesday and Thursday, 10/14-15

Wednesday:

6.5 miles of easy running on the roads. 7:05 average? I needed an easy day after several days of good running!

Thursday:

10 miles / 66:30 - with a 5 mile tempo on the dreadmill in 27:40. 5:40, 5:40, 5:40, 5:40, 5:00. The tempo felt pretty good. I would have run in the rain but arrived late from Pittsfield, MA to a dark and ominous-looking Andover, so treadmill it was. At first, 5:40 felt horrible but by 7-8 minutes into the run it started feeling pretty relaxed and I was tempted to cut it down a bit, but wanted to be disciplined about the plan since it was my first tempo effort in a while. I eventually compromised heading into the last mile by deciding on a fast finish.
