AEROBIC BUILDER: FARTLEK
I met Ken, Ben, and Jason at the pond for a big boy workout. The plan for me was ten miles alternating 5:30-paced miles with 5:05-paced miles. We did three-mile warmup with a few strides and then we were off.
I felt pretty good through six miles, but once I hit the pedestrian bridge up and over I-15 I got breathing hard and from there it became more difficult to get my breathing back under control and get back in rhythm. But overall it turned out really well.
Splits: 5:30, 5:00, 5:28, 5:00, 5:28, 5:00, 5:38, 5:03, 5:33, 5:03 for a 5:17 overall average.
Lunchtime: 5 miles easy, no watch.
