Yesterday was the first of what will become a long line of identical tuesday workouts. 5 miles easy followed by 3 acceleration strides. A couple of people have asked me what the acceleration strides are, here is the definition from runningplanet.com:
Begin by performing a slow jog. Gradually increase your speed to 100 percent effort. The total distance run should be around 100 meters. Jog easy for 100 meters and repeat. Be sure to steadily and gradually increase your speed over the entire distance. Repeat for the desired number of repetitions.
Tuesday: 5.62 miles. 7:49 minutes/mile average pace.
