Last tempo run before DC

Reading Time: < 1 minute

It’s been a long haul the last 3 months or so trying to get this slow body to feel somewhat natural running faster, and so far, so good. Today’s run had 5 miles of tempo running sandwiched by some warm up and cool down miles, and I was very pleased with the result. Average pace for the tempo section of the run was 8:07, which is good 15 seconds a mile faster than what I need to run in DC later this month to break my goal time of 1:50 in the half marathon. Not blistering, by any stretch, but it will be a nice, big PR if I can pull it off.

Here’s the profile of the run. Had a pretty decent amount of hillage in it (and yes, that is a word because I just deemed it so).
