Total Distance

12.70

Met up with Octagon of Trust again this morning at Clyde's house for our tempo workout. The plan was 3 mile warm up, 7 miles at tempo, and then a cool down back to Clyde's. I knew going into it that the last 2 miles would be a nice up hill climb. The last mile goes up the golf course into Bloomington Hills. I wanted to just relax this morning and really only felt yucky during the 5th mile. I felt good on the up hills and finished with 5:54/mile overall. Great workout with the rest of the guys. It was only 91 at about 5:30 this morning.

Katey is out of town until Friday at girls' camp so I will have to get creative on getting my runs in while watching Norah. I think I hear the jogging stroller calling my name.

Paul's blog entry for the day incase you missed it: "Tempo day. I planned on doing some intervals, but I decided that I hate intervals, and never want to do them again. Ever. Again. In my lifetime. I love tempos. I will run tempos. Today I ran a tempo. Did the Bear River Loop. First 10 miles in 56:10 (5:37/mile average), then coasted back in, with 6x100m strides along the way. 5:52/mile average for the entire run."

What are you trying to say Clyde? Let the interval/tempo debate continue. I did enjoy reading Paul's comment about not wanting to be well rounded anymore:)
