Type: Tempo Run  Total Time: 55 minutes.   Total Distance 6.17.  Pace Ave: 8:55 

Since this was a tempo run and not a speed training run, I focused on miles and not minute intervals.  The following are approximate times.  I don't remember exactly.

1- warm up around 10-9:50 pace

2 warm up 9:30 pace

3 increase pace 9:00

4 increase pace 8:30

5 Marathon pace just under 8:00

6 Marathon pace @ 8:00

6.17 cool down and hop off the treadmill.  I was supposed to cool down 2 miles but get too bored.  I did run 5 minutes more total on the treadmill this time!  I'm proud about that.  It's BABY STEPS for me.  :)
