Tempo Thursday
Tonight was a treadmill tempo run. I find the treadmill is a great tool in that it forces you to hold a pace. I warm up with 2 miles at an easy pace, then bump up the treadmill to 7.5 mph, increasing by 0.2 mph after each mile for five miles. A slower mile to cool off then some upper body weights. Overall, a great workout that I'm sure I will feel in the morning.
The numbers: 8 miles in 1:04:55, with the 5 miles at tempo pace in 37:37.
Some minor blistering on my left foot, but that spot is always getting rubbed raw; something I need to manage better.
The bed beckons now.
