AM DeFazio tempo with CA

September 29, 2015 (Morning)

Exercise Type: Run

Comments:
AM tempo with CA. Thought about doing something on the river path by the mall, be decided on the tried-and-true DeFazio loop. It's weird.,.I haven't done straight tempo since before Cascade Lakes at the end of July! That sapped the system so hard that I flat-out avoided it.

There's still a bit of something in the air - it's been real hazy at night. And I was committed to warming into this. Ran about two miles to EWEB, then took off without strides.

Kept the HR under 160 'til about a mile...but then it spiked close to 170, so I had to slow up. Stride felt great:

- elite feet
- trunk arched and forward
- pawback + "Salazar heel recovery"

But the split sucked: 20:03! Oh well! CA wasn't too far behind, maybe 21.

Slow jog to the apt + to the end of the block
