Distance: 5.5ish
Time: 43:20
Temp: 84
Time: 8:30
Food Before: Hummus and Pita Chips 2 hrs before
Shoes: Saucony Running shoes
The first 15 minutes went by great and then I somehow got confused on where exactly I was. As soon as I conquered that confusion I got going on my tempo runs. I did 1:15 on/off 1:30 on/off 1:45 on/off 2:00on/off making it a total of 13 minutes for the tempo run. I kept a pace that was more reasonable this time, probably about a 7:35 split instead of whatever I was running last time. I managed to settle back into my normal pace throughout the whole tempo session. Then I went and threw off my running shoes and reunited with the old barefeet again. It felt so good, rough on the cement but just so natural. I think i will continue to do that for all my tempo runs until I am ready to shed the shoes again.
Food immediately after: banana smashed up with hemp seeds and almonds
Dinner: Linguine and marinara sauce with a side salad
good job trying out the other shoes even if theyre not as fun - it's good to mix it up.
