Thursday 070308, 80 minutes, tempo

11 minute warm up jog, mostly to work out the charlie horse kink in my left thigh from yesterday's crash.  Then started the out and back effort:  30 minutes out, 29:10 back.  Passed the 23 out place from last week's run about 45 seconds faster.  The out is quicker than easy pace, I guess you could call it easy plus, medium minus ... but it wears on you.  The pace back is where the work begins.  While this is a boring workout to read about, it a great workout (when I ran sub 34 in the 10K at altitude about 6 years ago, out and backs were my bread and butter).  10 minute warm down, 80 minutes in the AM.
