Aim: 7 miles tempo at goal half-marathon pace (7:38/mile, or 1:39:59). Success!!! 7 miles 53:03 (7:34.7/mile, or the same pace as last week's *5* mile tempo), all miles 7:38 or less, last mile 7:23. Plus, I definitely had the juice for more at the end! Very happy run with some excellent (and continuing) post-run endorphins, too! I think my legs with this effort are telling Elyssa G. that she's going to have a killer sub-1:40 tomorrow at the National Half-Marathon. 3.41 miles warmup 29:27 (8:39/mile) including pick-me-ups to 7:30 pace. 1.05 miles cooldown 9:20.


Outstanding, Neal!! Wondering if you take any nutrition.

Thanks! I gatoraded prior to the start of the tempo miles (but nothing while tempoing). I also had a bagel right before my warmup.
