Another sucky tempo is no big news I guess. But it's my responsibility for the future myself to document it. 4 fast miles at 6:21, 6:25, 6:31, 6:26. At the end, I was done for. In the pain cave for the last 0.7 mile. The course was my usual, somewhat hilly course close to work (but not too hilly at all). The weather was perfect, 55 degrees, and my run had net elevation loss. Average pace was 6:25.69. Barely qualifies for tempo run.

Still much faster than I was a year ago, but not where I should be based on my last half marathon. At least hard running is over for the week. Only two days, a little more than 14 miles, and I'm hitting a magic 50. HM training starts on 1/20 (though I should probably double check that).
