I ran a total of 8.5 miles today in 57:43. The real goal was after the first warm-up mile to run six one mile intervals. Between each interval I got a 2:00 minute recovery at 7.3 mph. I ran each interval at 9.3 mph (6:27 min mile) except for the third interval I ran at 9.5 (6:18 min pace - I said mix things up a bit, right?) and the sixth interval I began at 9.3 but increased it .1 mph every 1/4 mile.
It was tough and I can tell my body is still a little fatigued from last week's hard sessions. And I was thinking about what I wrote yesterday about feeling more comfortable when running fast. While it was definitely physically harder today, it was still more comfortable. Go figure.
