Tempo Race

Today was the dreaded tempo race. I haven't done one of these since back before Freescale and to be honest, I haven't missed them. I was part of a small group that didn't get the memo that G changed the meeting time to 5:45. I got there at 6 and Jay was just rolling in as well. G sent us out on a one mile warmup and we got back as the others were finishing their drills. They took and the rest of us finished the drills and headed to the start line. Since my normal training buds were in the other group, I headed out with Shannon and a couple of other folks in the front. I did the first half in 14:26 and did the second half in 14:12 so I had a little bit of a negative split. The time wasn't my best, but was OK for tired legs and a sore ankle.
