If it's Tuesday, it must be...

I missed my tempo run this morning, but had a narrow window of time later in the morning when I had to run an errand, so I ran it. Fartlek-style. The 5.5 miles in 38:51 included 6 pickups between 1:00 and 3:40 Checking off a couple of the longer ones on the map, it looks like I was dipping below 6 minute pace.

Other recent runs:
Friday, 5.6 miles including 2x1600, 1x1800. These were supposed to accelerate with each 400 meters in the range of 1:40-1:25/lap, but I had trouble with the timing. 6:04 average pace.

Monday, 5.5 miles. Thanks to the glorious revelation that, instead of running *before* Christine and Si wake up, Christine can wake up 15 minutes earlier and I can run *afterwards* and still get to work on time. I must say, though, I missed those first rays of dawn.
