The second day of speedwork. These first few weeks are only getting up to T-pace, which should be manageable. Part of my problem is, I have no threshold for pain on the run. Running fast hurts. This is a given. But I'm not absorbing as much as I should be. But tonight was more practice.
The session was more time at speed than Tuesday, but broken up more, with shorter rests. I'm not sure if this is supposed to be easier, but at least it's more manageable to try to talk yourself through the last 2 minutes of a 4 minute interval than the last 10 minutes of a 12 minute interval. I did the whole workout tonight at my newly redefined T-pace, which may still be a little quick, but I'm going to have to learn to live with that. I can't handle scaling this back any more. I know the speed is there, it's just a matter of reawakening it.
Run: 44 minutes, w/ 2x(6 minutes @ 9.0 mph, 1 minute @ 7.3 mph, 4 minutes @ 9.0 mph, 1 minute @ 7.3 mph)
