Notes
Warm up with Drew. We ran 5 miles before checking out the track again, still some runners. We knew the varsity was at another track meet, but I guess the middle school girls took their chance. We popped on our flats and did 2 more miles. It wasn't necessarily a conscious decision but soon became obvious we were doing tempo (6:05 and 5:55).
On the track, Drew abandoned his time trial plans so I just made up workout on the spot. Started with a 1200 at faster than tempo, then proceeded with a 600m closer to 5k pace. Repeated that twice before finishing with just the 1200.
4:13: felt good
1:57: felt strong
4:13: Drew led, I didn't enjoy at first but fell into rhythm
1:57: good
4:09: focusing on not slowing down and ended up going faster
1:55: Drew dropped and I went a little harder
4:05: at times, this still feels easy, other times like I can't hold for longer than 5k.
Good enough and moderate enough workout. One concern is how my left foot has been feeling after wearing the Metaspeed Sky's. 13 miles in then could be worrisome.
