Notes
Nighttime tempo run, cold and windy, had to bundle up for this one. Ran down to the MoS to run along the Charles, plan was to do 2-3x2 miles, tentatively aiming for 5:50. Felt good on mile 1, then got ROCKED by the wind on mile 2. I think the lagoon along the Esplanade was totally exposed or something, I felt like I was back at New Bedford. Considered calling the workout right there but decided I needed to stick it out, and on the second rep I got in a good rhythm and was able to run the pace I hoped to, was still fighting the wind but not as bad. Had to take a pit stop after the second 2 mile, so since I had a longer break anyways decided to jog over past the BU bridge and then run a faster 5th mile to finish the workout. Had the wind at my back for this, so nothing too crazy, but felt pretty strong running just under 5:30. All in all, not a bad workout. Nothing tremendous but a good building block.
