Notes
Temp 75 Wind 5 mph. Humid (84%) Dew Point 70 degrees.
Muggy morning, rain moving in, off and on breeze that's warm and heavy when blowing. Have shorted myself sleep the last two nights and am starting to feel it. Rubbed chest raw with HR monitor strap during Long Run on Sunday, so flying blind today. Would anticipate HR a bit elevated due to circumstances above.
Mile 1 - 7:03: Felt too fast and was too fast.
Mile 2 - 7:09: This felt about right.
Mile 3 - 7:09: Started to feel like low-end of Race Effort in second lap. Probably was; when trying to relax and recover on straight aways, could not do it anymore.
Overall, would only grade one of three miles satisfactory. 7:10 was the right pace today, so probably would have been perfect had I done the first mile in 7:10-7:15.
