feels like September not December. Just cruising along at 7-8 per day at 7:20-7:30 paces. Tomorrow I will hit the USU track around noon for some intervals to keep me honest. Thinking of running the carlsbad 5000 in March.... anyone done that?
6 x 800 on USU track with Neal in a nasty swirling wind. 400 recoveries. my times were 2:45 , 2:46, 2:47, 2:46, 2:51 and 2:47, Neal was 12-15 seconds faster on each interval. Tough with the wind.
two mile warm up @7:22. then 3 miles at 6:31. then 2.2 at 7:24. trying to get the feel for maintaining a 6:30-6:40 pace since all I have been doing is 5K and 10K races at 6:00-6:10, and intervals, and easy stuff. Now if I can just maintain that 6:31 for 23.2 more miles.....
