Wet and Wild

Duration: ?
Distance: 5ish miles
Tempo Mile: 6:57 :(

Today I did my tempo run, with a two mile warm up in the rain. The warmup was easy and I was feeling good. I was getting a little nervous for the Tempo since it was my first time running that fast in awhile. I stretched a bit and tried to jog into my tempo mile. Then the rain began to pour, and out went one of my headphones. Ha but it didn't matter it was time to run and time to run fast. I think I went hard until about 4 minutes in then my pants we're so heavy they began to fall and then my mp3 player fell out and I had to grab it. Overall the tempo mile was not so great, but i accept that it was my first in a long while. After wards I did two more to cool down. I know my aerobic fitness level is low right now and I am a bit out of shape, but I am trying to move forward and get back into it as quick as I can. I think i may run with my vibrams tommorow, just to see if it is the shoes holding me back, I hate those damn shoes. But yah 4 days in a row running.
