Temp: 86
Weight:118
Had 1/2 bagel and jelly 2 hrs before plus 1.3/4 bagel and jelly earlier in day ( thinking I would run earlier ). Stomach upset during run.

60min easy run. Found it hard to keep consistent pace. Uphill on first 30 minutes and downhill for last 30 min.
Ate 1/4 bagel and jam 30 min b/4 run and scoop of o2 positive by bioR rhythm . Tolerated that well. All other runs this week on empty stomach.

High knee drill more like low knee and skippies more like hurkey jurkies.

15 minute w/u
4x 15 second strides. After never doing strides, I liked how they prepared me for the tempo. I would thane thought that any effort before a tempo would tire me out but these did not.
20 minute tempo with goal pace at 8:20. I had a hard time keeping pace consistent. The pace seemed to fluctuate between 7:45 and 8:30. It was not a flat course-- slight but consistent uphill for first 11 minutes and then slight but gradual downhill for last 9 minutes. Stamina was good throughout.
12 minute c/d

Temp: 75 deg. F

9 steep but short (<0.5 mi in length) hills during run. Held pace throughout run but was somewhat fatigued during last 5 minutes. Temp. 77 degrees.
