9 mile Thursday (1:03:46) Tempo Run

Clay took me on a great run today from his house up to the aqueduct and back. The first 2.5 miles were up hill and progressively steeper. Then a few miles flat on the aqueduct, and downhill back home.

I picked up the pace once I reached the aqueduct and kept the rest of my miles under 7 minutes (some way under). Mile splits were 8:14, 8:07, 8:04, 6:58, 6:49, 6:18, 6:20, 6:37, 6:13. Average pace was 7:05 which was great considering the hills we climbed at the begining. Total for last 6 miles was 39:15 and last 3 miles was 19:10. See Clay's blog for his entry for today.

We have had great running weather this week. I hope it lasts through the weekend.
