Notes

Targeted 2E-3T-7E-3T-(1 or 2)E and whether it was appropriate or not, aimed for 5:40 on the T. That's IDEALLY goal HM pace in a month so I was sort of treating this like a kind of dipstick workout... if I couldn't reasonably manage this at 5:40 pace today there's very little sense in shooting for it at CMHM. Let's say I've demonstrated proof of concept at this point but we'll see what the next few weeks bring. Wore my Flyknit Streaks to test them as a HM shoe (have only worn for 10k) and I think I'll go with them. Once again had a hard time getting rolling on that first T mile but was pretty locked in after that. Last week was maybe more objectively impressive considering the ending pace but I'm more proud of this one I think.

Could have been another 80+ without too much trouble but still solid.

I couldn't recommend the zoom fly more for long tempo/hm/m stuff. They feel really fast and the comfort is incredible. I also put 700+ miles on them so they're worth the $$.

The poor man's Vaporflies? PASS.

if you're willing to drop the coin I don't doubt that the vaporflies are actually the best marathon shoe available. Maybe just for the placebo effect alone.
