Notes
Temp 63 Wind 4 mph. Humidity 83% Dew Point 58°.
Hour Continuous Run with Tempo. 20/28/1X format. Weather conditions much better. Running tempo on the track to save the legs for hill repeats later this week. Will not look at watch until finished. Hitting lap buttons on tempo to check on progression (if any). First 20:00 minutes at 8:13 average pace. Crossed paths with Paul S. warming up for his hill repeats and ran last half of warm-up with him.
Chatting, and did not do any surges. Ease into tempo. Tired back helped with focus. Was having trouble keeping hips forward for extended periods. Between that, relaxing shoulders, and monitoring my work zone, head had to be in the game at all times. Ended up with 4.17 miles at 6:43 average pace. First 8:00 minutes at 7:01, middle 12:00 at 6:38, and final 8:00 at 6:33. Overcame soft start with solid middle and finish.
Jog home at 8:34 average pace. Saw PS again and continued conversation. One penny. Good day's work.
