AM - 9.5 miles. 60 min with 30 min tempo. Strong workout for me today. I really focused on keeping my breathing calm and staying relaxed. At the beginning, I just sat back and just let everybody else lead. I started to move up as some of the younger guys fell back but still sat at the back of the pack. With about 10 min left I started moving more towards the front and took the lead. I started to gap the group a little bit but I pulled back a little to let us regroup. Then me and Jason got a nice little groove going and we pulled a little bit ahead to finish off the tempo. It was definitely my best tempo of the season and I accomplished my only goal for the week which was to do well on the tempo. We also had a pretty good group going for most of it.
PM - 3.5 miles. Hot run on 2450 loop. I felt pretty good. Not tired like last week.
