Another attempt at tempo. Not what I wanted. My body was exhausted, and I was drained, so I slept in for the first time in a long time. One mile warm up. Couldn’t find my stopwatch or my arm band, so throw back to when I timed with my iPod (but iPhone this time). The first mile felt good, but I couldn’t make my legs go any faster. It was a 7:08. The second mile, I was wrecked. I’m not sure if there is a mental barrier or if it’s physical, but the second mile was a 7:34. By that point, I was hoping to go for a sub 7 on the last mile. Quarter of a mile in on a slight uphill, I slowed way down, had a battle by speeding up, slowed down, sped back up, then decided to just cut it short. It was okay, though. Finished to the half a mile. Core after.
