Tempo run 6.16 mi 00:52 08:21 pace
1mi w/u, 4mi tempo, 1 mi c/d. Hard to get into this after just 1 mi w/u. Still felt like I was pushing it, though. Good to get out in those 40 degree temps.
Splits: 9:00, 8:13, 8:11, 7:57, 7:45, 8:57-
Nice splits! Well done!

Tempo queen ;-) I'm finally going to try those in preparation for my May half mary, though my training schedule doesn't have me doing them regularly until the middle and peak portions. I'm sure they will challenge me!

5 w/ bayou 5.22 mi 00:43 08:10 pace
The bayou, dirt section, was from mi 1.8- 2.6 and was quite windy there. I slowed down a bit there, but picked up the pace on the last 2 miles. I guess opposite of a tempo run, eh? :)

Guessing on the time as my watch says 23.03 and I know that isn't accurate. Anyway I'm testing out the heel inserts. I guess it can't help immediately. Missing the feel for the surface, though.

Didn't you just run a marathon? And you are questioning your fitness? Don't read anything into your runs for 2 weeks after the marathon.
