Today I wanted to repeat the same length of run as Thursday, but this time I wanted to try to maintain a somewhat even pace/effort for the whole way. A tempo run. I started out with an effort that was pretty quick, but hopefully not too fast as to not repeat this pace for the rest of the run. I did well until I got to about the half-way point, then I started struggling a little bit. I kept the pace pretty well though, only falling off 15 seconds per mile. I picked it up for the fourth mile and then decided to push the last mile. This one hurt a little bit. I pushed, but it was NOT an all out effort. I definitely held back a little, and it was hurting a bit by this point. I still made it in under 7 minutes though. Overall I am very impressed with this.
