Not my best idea, this workout, as I'm just getting over a stubborn cold. My last speedwork was a full ten days ago. I did an easy six the next day and knew something was wrong. I ran exactly three times Dec 1 - 7 for a total of 22 miles, none of it faster than 7:30. And I had to skip a race.
So I went after this with too much enthusiasm... but the real issue is that it would have been too fast even without the cold. I firmly believe that tempo work should be done at half-marathon pace, and I'm not in 1:15:50 shape. Not yet.
