Tempo Tuesday
Tempo Tuesday
Beautiful morning here in Toronto. Ran 7km at tempo pace with a 1 km warm up and 1 km cool down.
Re: Tempo Tuesday
No tempo for me, just a 5k walk/run on the treadmill at lunch.

Bike Hill Repeats Tuesday for me! I'm meeting a friend at a local 1K-long crazyass steep hill for some suffering tonight (Brimley Hill at the Scarborough Bluffs, for those in the GTA). This time I'll remember to wear my HRM.

Re: Tempo Tuesday
Best run so far. Same 5km route.
The cool and overcast weather certainly helped. I focused on form and let pace take care of itself.
Made to the halfway point in 14:05, no stopping, not for water, not for shoe laces, not for tight calves, not even for traffic.
Got back in 28:28.
So 14:23 for the second half, which is almost all slightly uphill.
I had to use a pace calculator, how sad is that. 5:41/km average pace.
Felt solid.

Re: Tempo Tuesday
5 miles early this morning, wet and cold in the Capital!
After the run I noticed that my right need was a little tender, especially going down stairs. I may have started pushing too soon after last weeks marathon. I'll take it easy for the next couple days and give it a try again on Friday.

Re: Tempo Tuesday
4 x 1M threshold (5:53) with 391m jog recoveries + WU/CD for 14K. This is a good workout to shake a race out of my legs.
Re: Tempo Tuesday
5.5k with a friend.
