Notes
8 Mile Steady State
Solid workout today. Down in Champaign for the weekend. Woke up this morning feeling like I got hit by a train. Laid in bed as long as possible, then got up and had some coffee and relaxed for a while. Finally got myself out the door around noon and ran over to the Tempo Loop. It was an absolutely gorgeous day, though there was a decent wind coming from the north. Ended up having a pretty successful workout. Splits were all over the place, but my effort output was indeed consistent. 1st, 4th, and 7th miles were all with the wind and I effortlessly ran those pretty quickly. Miles 2, 5, and 8 I would run ~20 seconds slower putting forth the same or more amount of effort. Didn't worry too much about the splits though, and just tried to stay locked in and consistently pushing. Felt like I accomplished this. I was gassed by the end, had to work really hard the last mile. Happy with this, especially with it being my first workout in 2 weeks.
