After getting over my inversion depression I drove out to the oval to

get in the dreaded 10 mile tempo.  With a 2 mile warm up and 10 mile

cool down on either side.  As the track is not a nice round number I had

to get mile splits between the 1,600 start line and the finish then

start over at the 1,600 start.  So I got 9 mile splits starting at 5:55

and ending in the high 5:4x's and I believe the overall time was right

around 58:20 for 10 (5:50 pace) and just kept running to make it an even

60 minutes.  Saw the Utah woman's team finishing their practice during

the first half, and some of them even had encouraging words for me.  I'm

happy with the workout and should just be the first of many 10 mile

tempos before Boston.  The air can't get clear soon enough.
