Well, it doesn't quite have the same ring as Tempo Tuesday, but today was the day for my re-scheduled tempo run. I was up and running at 5:30, treated to a glorious 15C (59F) with no humidity! What a great feeling to actually have a slight chill at the start.
My legs felt tired, which I expected since this was my fourth consecutive day running. Tuesdays definitely work better after my rest day on Monday, but I did what I had to do this week and I made it through. (Despite almost talking myself out of it several times before I started!)
3K warm-up @ 18:35

Have a great weekend!!

That's great running during the week. I run Tuesday to Sunday and only in the mornings. This Monday we have a public holiday so I get to catch up on sleep!

Wow!! Great tempo run and running week...enjoy sleeping late!:)
Good Job! Usually when I've been getting up early, it's hard for me to sleep in when I get the chance. I hope you don't have that problem!

Ahhhh! You've inspired me, I'm going to start doing morning runs, on non work days at least.
