At 5:22 pm at HHS Track.  Ran 6.24 miles at 8:56/mile.  

4.88 Easy and 1.36 VO2max.

Plan was a pyramid workout with a 1-2-3-4-5-4-3-2-1 minute pattern for 25 minutes at 5K pace and 9 minutes at VO2max intensity with 2 minute rests.  What I actually did was a 1-2-3-2-2.  So ten minutes run at 5K pace for 1.36 miles. The 5K splits around 7:25/mile goal pace.

These VO2max workouts…they do not come easy for me.

Redemption comes Thursday with the Tempo workout (weather permitting).  I think the tempo workouts are easier. 

So that the workout would not be a total wash, I opted to do a bit of running at a little faster than Easy 9:25/mile pace.
