Today's goal was 20:50-20:55 for a 5k time trial. It would have helped had I done the math a little better in advance, more than knowing I needed to go faster than 7:00/mile average, so I would have had a better idea on how to tweak my pace after I ran my 1st lap on the track in the equivalent of a 6:11 pace (way too fast!). While I pulled back successfully, it was a bit too much. And while each of the miles was faster than the preceding, I used up a little too much during that initial burst.
Mile Goal Actual
1 6:46 7:04
2 6:46 6:45
3 6:46 6:41
Total: 21:10 -- close, but not quite. Definitely a hard, fast run.
Tomorrow: Easy-pace 7 miles.
