I swear I didn't do this on purpose, but a 5-miler came up for the tempo run this week, this time at 90 percent of 10K time trial pace. I used my most recent 10K time, which is pretty much irrelevant because it comes from two years ago and sits at 7:10/mile. It's also a bit ambitious at this point, but I'd rather be aggressive than too slow, regardless of what MAF says. May is just around the corner.
Run: 5M @ 90% of 10k TT pace
mywrite: For me, this would be a 7:53/mile pace, or 39:25. I got out ahead of pace early on and just held there, so finished at 39:16. Very happy with how my calves/achilles seem to be holding up to the slight uptick in mileage. So I guess I just beat Merrill?
Also, I hope the groundhog is right, I do not like these snowy cold runs. And this is basically my first one, so if we've got a long winter, I'm in trouble.
