Two PRs. That's a good workout
3.1 Miles
Held steady for 3.0 miles at 7:03.5, then picked it up. I could have picked it up sooner. A 21:30 or 21:45 was in me tonight. It felt hard, but comfortable. I never pushed it, or lost control of my form.
Mile 1-3.0 = 7:03.5/mile
Last Mile (2.1-3.1) = 7:01
After an easy recovery, I ran hard for a mile, and finished in 6:22, knocking off three seconds from my time last week.
How I will miss this days when the getting in shape part is over and my times plateaus!
I have 1:52 to slice from my time, plus I need to convert the treadmill factor to real ground, under race conditions. To get it done by September 30 looks like a possibility only with a huge jump. I just had two big jumps, but I need more to pull it off. Logically, it might not happen until late October, but this is not the kind of progress that happens exactly per plan. All I can do is train smart and run hard. The rest (all of it, really) is up to God.
