This morning was tempo run day. I have found the most consistent way to get this done, is to run the same course every week. That way, even if the course is not exact, the effort is measurable. This course is a 2 mile mix of up, downs and flats. I ran 12:20 this morning, which cleaved 36 seconds off my previous best. I tried some different form techniques while I ran and it helped. Since I have been doing so many leg strengthening exercises, I can engage my hamstrings and glutes more. I try to run in a centered position. If I speed up, I turn my legs over faster and engage my glutes more. Seems to work : )
