Notes
No help from the TU boys this morning since practice was cancelled for finals. Started off feeling ok, took until mile 4 to feel like I was in rhythm. Did an hour easy/long run pace then did a 3on-3steady fartlek. Ran down riverside for the first hour and started the pick ups on the creek turnpike trail which wasn't ideal with all of the hills but gave me reason enough to start conservative. #'s 1-5 and 12 were involved fairly substantial hills (12 because i was tired and going uphill almost the entire way). Johnny wanted me to cool down for 2 miles, and I would have run 11 surges to that point, but I wanted a round number so I went for one more than what was asked. Managed 5:0x average for the pick ups, and sub-6 for the steady portions (most of the time right at 5:55). Feels good to knock out a big-boy long run on the heels of a 140 mile week!
