2.25 m. up w/ strides, 8 m. tempo on Clinton 4 m. loop, 2.25 m. down. I wanted the second 4 m. loop to be faster than the first. I met that goal, but I wanted to average about 5:30 on the first 4 and then around 5:25 on the second 4. I wasn't able to run that fast. I guess I'm still working on getting back after the marathon. Splits were: 5:34, 5:42, 5:35, 5:28, 5:31, 5:39, 5:31, 5:20.
I'm mostly glad that I still feel motivated to run hard workouts. Usually after a big race like the Ogden Marathon was for me I end up going into a slump.
