Yesterday was a “tempo” day–a 1 mile tempo. Maybe that’s an interval. Needless to say, I thought I could run a 7 minute mile, but I lost the pace at about 4/10 of a mile and struggled to keep a 7′20″ mile.
Coming off of that effort with a little bit of pain, I had my physical therapy visit today. Some of the pain was taken care of, but I still have a little nerve pain. I still managed my “easy” run tonight, keeping with +0.1 mile per day progression and the +0.1 mph per 1/2 mile for treadmill runs.

Related Posts - Streak day 13 #twit2fit Ended up on the treadmill, as the thunder crashed as my Garmin synched. Lucky for me, because a few minutes later, while on the treadmill, pea-sized hail started falling outside. I probably would have been a half-mile out at that point. 3.6 mile in 35'47" for 9'57". 13 day streak. ......

- Tempo run 8.04 miles in 65 minutes (8'06" pace) I run my tempo and intervals on the treadmill (especially as opposed to running in th dark during rush hour). It's not optimal for training I guess, but I'd rather run the treadmill than miss another tempo or interval week. Mile point - speed (pace) 1% incline 0 - 6.2......
- 10k "PR" on a tempo run - 45:14 #running #twit2fit My 10k PR is 46:26, which is a 7:29 pace, and my target tempo pace for today was a 7:21 pace. I had tossed around the idea of running a 10k race this weekend, but decided that I didn't want to reduce my miles enough to make a strong showing......
