Threshold run today of 4 miles at goal half marathon pace (6:50). Very foggy today - was running through the clouds on Ocean Beach bike path.

Struggled with the first two miles - 6:55, 6:59. A wee bit of headwind here. Nailed the second two 6:51, 6:45. A wee bit of tailwind here.

Felt pretty lousy in the first two miles. Felt this way on last week's threshold workout too. I'm learning to stick with these longer threshold efforts. It seems to get easier about half way through.

Long warm up 2.25 miles. And cool down 2.25 miles.

Great job! I consistently feel better in the second halves of tempos. I think it just takes a bit to get warmed up.
