Cross training.  I was going to run in the late afternoon but fell asleep on the sofa.

JRP.  Goal was a 3.3 mile interval ladder at <6:10 pace with 0.25 recoveries.  But summer is here.  I took an early lunch and it was still 88° by the time I was done.  Plus the wind was blowing 17 mph  w/ gusts to 25 mph.

0.25- 6:10,  0.5- 6:05, 0.75- 6:12, 0.76- 6:13,  0.5- 6:17 (feeling the headwind), 0.25- 6:04 (downwind), 0.3- 6:08.  A lot of walking and trying to cool off during the recoveries.   Not at goal pace but considering the heat, not so bad?

JRP.  Goal was 6 miles at 6:50 pace.  I failed miserably.  It was only 72°, so it wasn't the heat.  I don't know but I just crashed and burned.  I couldn't keep pace for even 4 miles.  Very discouraging.  I'm not sure what to think.  Should I adjust my training, give up on goal time, or just dismiss it as a bad run?  Are my legs and the rest of me tired from faster intervals even though my mileage is low?  Hmmm...

0.3 warmup.  6:49, 6:49, 6:54, 7:07 and I was done.  2 miles slothing it back in.
