Easy run

4.81 miles on treadmill.  30:11.  Pickups every half mile, 2x400 @5:56 pace at 4% incline in middle to wake legs up for workout tomorrow.  Humid.  Got in some light plyometics, drills and strides after.

Tired, but legs feel good.  Worked the overnight last night and then had court until 11am.  Got in a few hours of sleep this afternoon.  Sleep tonight.

Workout tomorrow is going to be VVo2max work.  5x two loops, or .56 miles.  Did this just before 10 miler I raced three weeks out from marathon.  Those splits were 2:45, 2:47, 2:47, 2:48, and 2:45.  Treated me well for 10-miler.  Other than getting lost during mile 5 and running an 8 something  mile, I ran 5:40 pace spot on. 

So tomorrow I'd like to be running these in the 2:40-2:43 range.  Easy .28 mile loop recovery.  If I can do that there isn't any reason I cannot run around 5:30 pace at 10- miler this weekend.  Weather depending.
