AM- Today we ran 8 miles with 3 miles tempo. I figured today would be pretty tough and it was. We had like the biggest tempo group we've ever had on one of these tempos though. It was me, Cam, Andrew, Nick, Jake, Jason, Dallin, and Jake at the beginning and then by the end of the tempo it was me, Cam, Andrew, Nick, and Jake. We lost a few guys but we made it. Our splits were 6:40, 6:30, and 6:17 for the last one. I felt myself falling off towards the end of the tempo so I told Andrew and Nick to let me run in front of them so I would be pushed and that seemed to work. I'm pretty sure that I ran a lot faster today then I did at the time trial and this was a whole mile more! I don't know... (half a mile warmup). |
