Warmed up with 3 easy miles then started a 4 mile tempo run. I was really tired during the warm up. I was really questioning whether or now the tempo miles were going to happen. After the warm up, I decided to just try tempo pace and see how things went. First mile 6:29 and felt pretty good. I guess I just needed a little jump start. Second mile 6:23 and I was still feeling good. Third mile was 6:25 and I was starting to fatigue. The last mile took a lot of work. I was getting really tired. I started to push harder the last quarter mile to get the split down. Ended up finishing in 6:19. Cooled down with 2 easy miles. I was a little more tired than I would have liked to be at the end of the run but other than that it was a really good run.
