4 Mile Tempo

FLEET FEET St. Louis put on a Nike Human Race 10K group run at Forest Park this morning, so I ran that, using the middle of it for my tempo run.

Ran the first mile easy as the warm-up then took off for the next 4 miles, and finishing with the final 1.2mi as the cool down - finished the whole thing in 36:44 feeling nice and relaxed.

I am still not impressed by the Nike+ Sportband - the thing is still a piece of crap in my opinion, as today it recorded the run at 4.49 miles....one of these days I might get it to actually work right!

7:00, 5:38, 5:28, 5:33, 5:33, 6:19, 1:13 = 6.2mi @ 5:55 pace
