So Happy right now!!!

Originally planned on doing a long run. But forgot my running clothes today on the way to work. And there is nowhere to run long comfortably around my house.

The result was this awesome run!!!! A few years ago this was my regular tempo run. A nice 5 miler sub 8. That is how I knew I was starting to get in shape.

So the plan on this run was to run the first mile hard settle into a strong pace for miles two and three and just try to hang on for a sub 40:00 five miler. I did die a little at the end. But wasn't in any kind of serious pain and no real cramps.

This is probably the most comfortable sub 40:00 5 milers I've done in a while.

Awesome! Its nice when you have a break through run like this. Next time you do a tempo, try to do the opposite. Start slow and make it a progression run so you finish faster.
