Notes
7 Mile Steady State
Very solid work out today. Very happy to get back to the basics and knock out some good tempo work. Group started out as myself, Weem, Josh, Choi, and Alex. We were the last group to start because David had to go to the bathroom. This ended up being a blessing though, as it gave us people to chase and work towards all workout. Wind was pretty stiff coming from the north, which made the miles going up Lincoln tougher. Wasn't nearly as much of a factor as some other Tempo Loop workouts though.
Got out very relaxed the first mile, just making sure to not kill the first mile with the wind. Picked up the effort a bit once we started going north to keep the pace consistent. At some point during this stretch, the group didn't come with, and I was left alone with Weem. Cruised through the first 4 pretty effortlessly, though Weem was running awkwardly 4 steps behind. He grouped up with me as we turned into the wind the second time. We kept the pace consistent during this stretch, but we were feeling it pretty good by the end of that segment. Fortunately we were chasing Hanskat and Ryan the whole way. Some biker almost ran us over which got Weem pretty fired up. Once we were out of the wind, it was pretty much smooth sailing the rest of the way. We picked it up and finished strong. Somerfield latched on as we passed him and we all finished together. V happy with the effort here. If only we could do long tempos for every workout. Then I would be a happy happy person.
Had a combination of Lorde's new single Liability (it's fire give it a listen) and Burning Up by the Joe Bros in my head all run lol.
Mobility afterwards.
