I had two objectives with today's run: (1) detox and (2) tempo.  By detox I refer to a "cleansing" run.  I've eaten so much junk these last three or four days I justed wanted to get it out of my system.  I know a hard run doesn't compensate for the poor diet but it makes me feel a little better about it. So today I only ate "healthy" with no sugars what so ever and followed that up with today's run.  Lets see if I can stick to the healthy diet through the rest of the holiday season.

TM run

Mile 1 & 2: warm up

Mile 3, 4, 5 (3 miles): 7:08 pace

Mile 5.5 (1/2 mile): 8:20 pace recovery

Mile 6.5, 7.5, 8.5, 9.5 (4 miles): 7:08 pace

Mile 10.5, 11.5, 12 (2.5 miles): cool down

It wasn't a "I think I'm going to puke" run but did push close to 10k pace.
