[workout time]
I'll update this after my tempo tonight, but I wanted to start it in order to note that today is the first time I've eaten a gel in a long time (over a year...haven't had one since Boston 2013). I ordered a box of Carb Boom! for this training cycle. I remember my first time eating one; I hated it! I learned to like it like I learned to like our Navy grape powdered sports drink (I'd like to get my hands on that stuff again...). I got the variety pack, and I'm excited to try some of their new flavors. They're under new management as of 2010 (when I graduated). I probably should have at least one gel during my marathon in November, so I'm letting my stomach know, "Get it together! I will run with gel in the belly!"
Update:
Things were a little hectic with a change of location for the tempo, so I missed the group tempo and just did a three mile tempo by myself. I didn't know distances, so I didn't know mile splits. Tempo feel, I should say, then.
All in all, 8.5 miles total. Lifted at home and did some core work.
