AM 61/92% (73/73%at finish)- so overall no complaints on the weather. I felt like it was a good week of miles and even though my legs are somewhat tired I wanted to finish the week strong in hopes I could slowly back off and then taper. 3 weeks to WPAFB Marathon so these are the final training runs that will pay any dividends. I figured if I could have a good 15 between a warm up and cool down and I should be satisfied. 2 Miles Warm Up (9:24, 9:01), then miles 3-17.5 (7:57, 7:48, 7:44, 7:33, 7:37, 7:32, 7:28, 7:36, 7:37, 7:25, 7:25, 7:22, 7:23, 7:18, 7:05 - pace for the 1/2) then 2.5 Cool down (it was going to be 3 cool down, but I felt pretty good and thought I would just run another half at a good pace). Afterwards I wondered if I should have went ahead and pushed trough the last 2.5 hard. I had the lungs for it, my legs were just tired so it was by design. Sometimes I can't help but question the 'if's'. 7:32 Avg (minus the warm up). |
