State Street route.

4.01 miles at 8:48/mile AP in 35:17

Splits: 9:20, 8:42, 8:32, 8:44.

Scheduled was 2 Easy (9:20-10:16) + 2 Tempo (8:43) + 2 Easy.

The second mile was on the fast side so decided to just get it done at tempo pace and start the tempo work portion early. The 3rd mile was fast as well.   The  4th mile also on the fast side and this was supposed to be the cool down portion.  So decided to just do that at tempo pace as well.

When all said and done, it turned out to be a four mile Tempo run (tempo pace for four miles is 8:53/mile).

Primary purpose for the workout to get two miles in at tempo pace...this done, no doubt.

Secondary purpose...get in a six mile run...fell short here.

May do a six mile Easy run Friday or Sunday...maybe not...if put together the 13 miler Saturday...may not be a big deal at all.

Of primary importance: monitoring my workouts and making sure the three hard weekly workouts get done.

One left to go for the week...Saturday's Long run.

So far on track.
