Did first up-tempo run in more than a month. It wasn't pretty, but better than it could have been. I warmed up for 15 min. and then ran 30 min. at moderately hard effort. Garmin was working, but I only looked at it occasionally and ran by effort. My pace started at 8:30 which was pathetic, but then it started coming down without extra effort from me. I ended up with 8:17 average by the end, which is about right for my current level. Ran easy 1.7 mi. to cool down.
Total time: 1:00:55 (8:34 pace avg.) |
