Comments Salem lake tempo run with Mutisya. Warmed up about 3 miles from Reynolds park. worked into a 2 mile tempo. Unfortunately hit the first mile in 5:29, far lower than my tempo pace (planning on 5:45), took my legs away early, second mile in 5:50. Took 2 mins recovery and rolled into another one. Erratic pacing on both our behalves ruined the workout for me. I stopped for a 2 min rest after the first mile of the second set, hitting about 5:48 (not to mention hurdling a small child with a dog on a leash and jogging in the last quarter). Must have been running 5:30s again early on. Hung on for one more at 5:50 before calling it. Mutisya was feeling strong and wanted another mile, so I decided to skip my rest and get a slight head start. He caught me about half a mile in and I closed out the last 800 in tow. I believe he hit around 5:25 for that one. Jogged in easy.
