13 mile tempo run at 5:45 am? Surely you jest!

So, I'm on my way to a 400 mile September, so, I had to do a long Tempo run this morning. Usually, actually, almost always, I run tempo runs at night when I am awake, but considering the day we have today, there is no time for that. SO, I set out, warming up the first few miles, then alternated with 1 mile at 5:40, 1 mile at 6:45, 2 miles at 5:40, 1/2 mile at 6:45, 1.5 mile at 5:40, then 1 slow, 2 fast, 1 slow 1 fast and 1 slow. It was exhausting, challenging, difficult, but ultimately I finished. I really wish I did not have work today, it would have been nice to lay around and recover. Oh well, onward and upward...
