Storms came in today, and I didn't feel like getting up early anyway. By the afternoon the lightning and thunder stopped, but it stayed cool. So at 7 PM I headed out to run 5 miles with 6x200m pick-ups. The wind was mild and out of the southwest, so I headed south along A1A.
I ran the first 1.5 at between 9:00 and 9:30/mile, and then started the pick-ups. 200m at around 7:00/mile then 400m slower until I caught my breath. I finished the 200's at around 3.5 miles. Then I kept it under 9:00 and really pushed it the last mile.
Final stats:
5.1 miles
41:48
8:12/mile
It felt good and hard. My lower back was killing me today so I did extra stretching and no strength stuff. Tomorrow is cardio for Mandy's birthday!!!
