AM - 4 easy miles PM - Took a couple of the guys on a 4 mile tempo. We were told to go out hard enough that we could come back at a faster pace, without killing ourselves. First two miles were 11:48. We stopped for about 4-5 minutes, then came back in 11:01. I was shocked at the 11:01 as I was sure we weren't running a second faster than 6:00 pace. I was running with a 17:00 5k guy, and he was struggling about 3 minutes into the return trip. I can't figure it out... I'm 99% positive that we were running 6:00 pace or slower, but my watch was running each time I glanced at it and it's never given incorrect times before. I'm left scratching my head as I don't think I'm suddenly magically in the kind of shape that 5:30 pace feels that easy. In any case, the knee felt okay. Not great, but okay. |
