PM workout

2.2 mile warmup,  felt good, but ran it way too fast.  12:47.  But this showed me I was recovered and ready to roll.

I ended up doing a bookend type workout.  Started with 1.4 miles, then did 6x1.12 miles, followed by another 1.4 miles.  Goal was to stay about 1:30-1:32 per loop, 5:21-5:28 pace.  Pretty much spot on.  I took an easy loop in between and wanted to stay around 2:00, and did that.  Other than being warm and humid it wasn't a tough workout, just brought the volume up some.  Water would have been nice.

1.4 miles(5xloop) splits of 1:27.6, 1:30.4, 1:30.6, 1:29.6, 1:29.5)

Easy loop (.28 miles), 1:56.1

6x1.12 miles(4xloop)

1.  1:28.6, 1:29.6, 1:30.7, 1:29.9

Easy loop, 1:53.0

2.  1:28.7, 1:29.0, 1:30.3, 1:30.3

Easy loop, 1:56.0

3.  1:28.9, 1:30.9, 1:31.2, 1:30.0

Easy loop, 1:56.9

4.  1:29.5, 1:30.7, 1:31.4, 1:30.0

Easy loop, 1:57.7

5.  1:29.2, 1:30.9, 1:31.8, 1:29.6

Easy Loop, 1:59.3

6.  1:30.4, 1:31.6, 1:31.8, 1:30.4

Easy Loop, 2:01.6

1.4 miles(5xloop), Splits of 1:30.7, 1:32.3, 1:31.6, 1:31.8, 1:29.0

Easy loop, 1:48.9

11.76 miles,  total of workout and easy loops, 1:06:38

2.2 miles cooldown,  14:37

I was starting to feel it in the cooldown without any water.  It stayed about 72 degrees and super humid.  I started so late it was dark for the cooldown, but at least I didn't have to run in the sun.

16.16 miles total.

Now lets see if I can recover enough to race well on Saturday.  A couple days of easy running and then hope for weather that is not like this.
