Tempo Run

So last nights run went better than I thought.

I really didn't have any expectations being that I have never quite gotten the hang of tempo runs and technically I did the tempo part too fast and the rest part too slow.

But I still consider it went rather well. First time I've had multiple splits in the 10s even after a rest break and a cool-down in the 12s.

Score one for me!

Splits
Tempo 0.10 01:03.3
Tempo 1.00 10:32.6
Rest 0.25 04:16.5
Tempo 1.00 10:49.2
Rest 0.25 04:16.0
Tempo 1.00 10:41.0
Rest 0.25 04:04.8
Tempo 0.78 09:15.4
Rest 0.25 04:16.0
Cool-Down 1.00 12:27.6

Final stats:
Distance: 5.88
Time: 1:11:42
Pace: 12:12 (I'll be busting 11s in no time ;)

I'm trying to stay focused so I can break the 1:00:00 mark in my next race: The Carnival Miami Calle Ocho 8K but what I'm really looking forward to is the street dance of Latin music & conga lines after the race, WOO-HOO! :)

On deck for tonight is a repeat of Tuesday, easy 4 miler on the treadmill.

Have a great day!

  1. Those are great splits Eliza. All this work will definitely pay off for the 8K...
