Project 365 – Day 61

Sometimes plans just don’t work out.  My plan for today was an easy recovery run as I was kind of feeling my progression run from yesterday.

I got on the treadmill and set the incline to 0.5% and the pace to a 9 min mile and kept it up for about 2 min, the set the pace at 8 min mile and cranked for the next 18 min, backed off to 9’s to cool down and got off the mill after 21 minutes.

The end result was that this ad hoc pseudo tempo run was only 6 sec/ mile slower than my hard progression workout from yesterday.  And if you eliminate the 1 min cool down would have been identical times 2.45 miles in 20 min. Go figure.

As it stands was 2.54 miles in 21:03 a good run.
