Easy Peasy Lemon Squeezy
I was really rethinking everything after the horrible ½ marathon experience at Wilmington. Now I think that was just an aberration in the training and I am going to discard it.
MIT track workout tonight. Tonight was my first workout on the MIT track. Kind of odd that I have lived near Boston my whole life and never worked out there before. The BAA guys were nice enough to let me into their workout for the evening. The workout was 10 miles with alternating miles at 5:28/5:12. Felt like I could have done 12 but didn't want to push it so close sunday's 1/2 marathon. Here's the data.
1 5.28
2 5.15 10.43
3 5.27 16.11
4 5.13 21.24
5 5.26 26.50
6 5.12 32.03
7 5.28 37.31
8 5.12 42.44
9 5.25 48.10
10 5.13 53.23
The weather was perfect. The group was ideal. I bet there are not too many groups of 8 people who can get together on a Wednesday night and run 53.23 for 10 miles switching the pace every mile. I do believe we are sending a strong New England contingent to chicago this year.
I need some sleep.
