Thursday Tempo

Today was tempo running session. Woke up at 5am to run in Calzada del Valle, nice 5km track for running through a nice neighborhood. I did 1.5km at an easy pace and then 6.5 at my mid-tempo pace (5:34 min/km pace) according to FIRST pacing chart and 5k reference time of 26:10. Finally closed the session running 1.5km easy pace. Result was 9.5km total and feelling very good. No tight joints or sore muscles (except for a slight ache in my middle toe of my left foot that I've had since several weeks ago). Hopefully its just that I am getting used to my new shoes. By the way, I went for a check-up with a sports doctor, and he told me I have my left leg slighlt longer than my right leg. This could be the reason of why I had a sore leg some months ago, and maybe also the ache in my toe.

Anyways, I'll be doing some easy biking tomorrow. Saturday I'm planning to do my long run of 12.5 kms and Sunday I'll be going mountain biking to a new track about 40 kms from Monterrey by the Saltillo highway to get prepared for the XC Mountain Bike race on May 18th.
