I ran the tempo portion of the "3PLUS2" workout today. I ran later than usual, at about 9:30 AM. I prefer to run at 5 AM because even in September, it's still pretty hot in North Texas. Here is a copy today's run: - 2 miles easy
- 3 miles @ short tempo pace
- 1 mile easy
Iced down the ankles and the knees for good measure and to cool down! Tomorrow is cross training day (cycling and core strenghtening). Saturday the plan is to run 8 miles at HMP(Half Marathon Pace) + 20 sec/mile. May be hard to do if the temprature stays as forecasted: 70's for the low. I've learned that my ability to run begins to drop somewhat when it's in the 60's and considerably when it goes above 70. I live in the wrong place!
