Body sore as hell before the workout, very hot out at 3pm. I basically have no sense of pacing either, most of them were run at negative splits. Still not a good workout but much better than the 8x1k last week.

133miles

This week was a good indicator of where my fitness is. I have noticed that I am struggling more to do intervals than tempos/progressions and this week proved it. The 5xmile Tuesday felt way harder than the race Saturday. To be completely honest, I felt extremely good during the second half of the race. As we warmed up, my legs felt a little sore just in general from training. After the first half of the race around 2.5mile there was a big hill called "G-Street Hill" which I was able to handle with no problem. The hill in reality helped me because it opened up my stride and I felt like I had a second wind after. I maintained pace very well, unfortunately, I did not get the chance to "kick" as the race was cut short at 4.4miles. By the time I noticed, it was 20-30 meters of the finish and Nate was able to get a head start on the kick. Still a good opener for me.I would have been happy with anything under sub 5min pace per mile, so that is a good indicator that once I get used to the interval training, I will run much better. This week also ended a two-week cycle (week 12+week 13) of the workouts I've been doing similar to Nate's schedule. I will start another 2 week cycle tomorrow.
