Maitenance: 21k @ 6.05

This was exactly the same 2 loops that I ran on Tuesday. With a shorter and faster session on Wednesday and a rest on Thursday I expected this to be much quicker and feel more comfortable. That turned out to be the case.

Tuesday was 2.11 @ 6.30. I was out before the sun was up but it did not take long for the humidity to increase to make the run very uncomfortable near the end. It is pleasing to get the maintenance runs down near 6 minute pace during the training week. Always remembering that during the training week it is near impossible to run at race pace unless you have had a few easy days before. Doing that just defeats the purpose of a solid training week.
