Thursday Tempo - Goal was 9@6:30 (my goal marathon pace for St. George).

Hit the parkway (so, flat as a pancake) and warmed up 2. Started into the tempo and felt alright. It was temperate out and I knew it would take a couple miles to really get in the groove. The first mile came in a hair faster than I had planned, but I didn't think too much of it. Mile 3 made me a little nervous I was going too hard too early but it just felt nice right around the 6:22-6:25 mark so I went with it.

6:27, 6:28, 6:23, 6:22, 6:23, 6:22, 6:21, 6:16, 6:12 (6:22 avg)

6:39, 6:31, 6:31, 6:27, 6:30, 6:28, 6:27, 6:23 (6:30 avg)

3 weeks ago I did an 8 mile tempo with those ^^^ splits on the same route. Today felt easier, so that is good.

It's nice when you get in the groove like that. Good work.

Awesome! As I read your first paragraph I was starting to think that things fell apart. Way to get in a groove and stay there!

Thanks gents! I think my body thrives off of the cooler temp.

That is a Great workout! I think you will for sure go sub 2:50 at St George.
