Tempo

Today I ran a Tempo. I went to bed knowing I was going to do one, I woke up without dreading it, and got through my morning routine without giving it a second thought, and I actually looked forward to it after my 2 mile warmup and was beginning to run hard for 4 miles.

Wow. I didn't think that would happen -- me actually looking forward to a tempo. Well, that's not quite true. I wasn't actually looking forward to it, but I wasn't worried about it either. I guess my body is starting to think that it can run faster. The tempo run is the best way to do that.

Not too much time for posting today... I did a 2x4x2 tempo, 9:02, 8:37, 8:56. I think it's a little slower than my last few tempos, but they weren't as long either.
