Notes
Another beautiful day! Decided to do something a little different on my one allotted speed day of the week. I ran two warmup miles (9:08, 9:04), then one mile at current 5k race pace (should have been 7:25-7:30. Ended up running a 6:57), then wanted to run the final mile at whatever my avg total pace was after mile 3 (8:24), which I somehow nailed exactly.
Tough run! I knew the fast mile felt too fast, but I thought it would be around 7:10-7:15, not sub-7!
Since I no longer wear my custom orthotics while running, I thought I'd bring my Superfeet Green inserts out of retirement. Big mistake. I have two big blisters on my arches and was in pain for the last mile or two. Guess they're going back into retirement.
