Week minus 10 - Speed Intervals - 7 miles

7.25 miles Garmin Link

1.5 mile warm-up
6 X 800M @ 3:13 (3:13 target) 1:30 RI
2.5 mile cool-down

Chris and I started from work this morning; temp in low 70s and muggy. Going to get into the 90s today. We jogged down to the rec path and I realized that I had neglected to hit the start button, so I'm adding 1.35 to the Garmin total.

The intervals were tough as always, but the times were surprisingly consistent - 4 of the 6 within 2 seconds of each other, and the average was 3:12.67 - just a hair under our target of 3:13. The best thing about the Monday run is having it over and looking forward to the relatively pleasant tempo run on Wednesday.
