11.75 miles - 1.5 warmup, 8.5 tempo, 1.75 cool down.

Adam was nice enough to join me for the majority of the tempo. It was nice to have some company on this tougher run for sure.  

Overall, I felt good on this tempo run. However, I went through some ups and downs during the run. The third mile of the tempo was actually our fastest even though it had the most uphill. I pushed it up the hill and felt good about it, but then I felt the worst during mile 4. That mile was mostly flat with a little uphill, but I did not feel great during it. My left quad felt a little odd for about a mile. Thankfully, around mile 5 I loosened back up and felt really smooth. I was only planning on doing 8 miles when I awoke, but decided to go an extra .5 because I was feeling good enough at the end. During the run I mentioned to Adam that 4 months ago I never would have believed anyone if they told me that I could do this workout successfully. Needless to say, I am stoked that I did it!
