Ran 6 miles over my lunch reak and today's workout was suppose to be a stength building exercise of a warm-up, 2 fast miles and then fnish it off at a consistant faster than easy day pace. I ran the typical course from work so I thought the 1st mile will be a little easier then mile two I would run hard and then at 2.5 I hop onto the trails so there through 4 I would take it a little easier than push it in for miles 5 & 6. The workout finshed with an average mile pace of 6:56. The miles broke down like this:
7:08, 6:12, 6:58, 7:14, 7:02, 7:01
Overall I felt good and the first 3 were with the wind and the last 3 were with the wind in my face probably around 5mph and the weather was upper 40's low 50's. I wore shorts and the sun was out and warm on the face. Oh ya, last night I shaved the beard off so that must have been why I ran so fast, more areo dynamic!!
