Today was cruise interval day and it kicked my butt. 25 minute warm up followed by 3 x's 15 minutes at T pace with a 3 minute recovery. I had a real hard time maintaining T-pace during the intervals. I was supposed to run them at an 8:12 pace and the best I could do was an 8:26 for the first 2 and then 8:29 for the last one. I am not sure if I was just tired from the increased mileage I have been running or if I am just more out of shape than I realized. I need to run a 10k to make sure I am working in the right zones. Any way I made it through the run the best I could and need to try again next week to see if today was just a bad day or whether I need to change my training zones.
Totals for today: 9.7 miles, average pace 9:10.
Let's hope the rain holds off until I get my long run in tomorrow.
