This morning I looked up my VDOT score according to last years 1/2 marathon. I was pooped out that I'm at a 30. I would like to be at a 36. I realize now I should have been training differently. So today I set out to do atleast one threshold mile at VDOT 36 range. Which is an 8:55 mile. I didn't quite make it. At VDOT 30 I should have been at about 10:18. My total average pace was a 10:05
Okay so here are my splits
1: 10:47 2: 10:09 3: 9:38 4: 9:17 (threshold well that is what I was going for but found it hard to keep consistant) 5: 10:33 (depressed b/c I couldn't keep at 8:55) 6: 10:11
Well I'm off to find some chia seeds, and maybe more running shirts--i ran out of cooler ones so I'm also doing laundry. I guess I'm running too much! |
