Didn't miss the rain on Thursday. It was pretty comfortable temperature-wise (58ish), but it was just pouring. I went out anyway. Yay me. :)
It's wet, a bit chilly, I'm not feeling any aches and pains from Carkeek, and I'm having a lot of trouble keeping my speed down. So I figured what the hell, if my body won't listen to my brain, we'll 'punish it'... Tempo Run!
8:38 @ 152
7:51 @ 170
8:10 @ 171
7:55 @ 172
8:00 @ 173 Tempo Avg: 7:59/mile @ 172 bpm
8:55 @ 169
0.13- 8:36 @ 168
6.13 miles in 50:37 (8:15/mile) @ 167 bpm
Probably should have dialed it back after 3, but... Slowest and highest HR Tempo run I've had. The 4 mile tempo block normally looks like 7:52/mile @ 164. I guess I'm not quite as recovered as I thought. :| .
Hamstrings, calves, and Achilles tendons all tightened up, and I went to bed super early. Just trashed. Which, honestly is about how it goes after almost all my Tempo runs. Which will be a point for future discussion... :)
