MARATHON-PACED BUILDER: 10K MP 1K REST 8K MP

I met Ken, Jason, and Ben at Beus trailhead. They had already met at Kneader's and left a car. We warmed up 4 kilometers and then did our workout.

The plan was 10k at goal pace, 1k moderate rest, and 8k at goal pace. I aimed for 5:25/mile, trying not to go faster, knowing that specificity is key at this point.

I hit both the 10k and the 8k at 5:24/mile avg and ran the 1k moderate rest at 6:04/mile pace.

AM: 7.1 miles easy on a cold, windy morning in the South Weeb, avg pace 7:01/mile.

PM: 4.3 miles to and back from Evie's soccer game, avg pace 6:50/mile. The contrast in temperature from this morning to this afternoon was almost like going from winter to summer!
