today's workout

Ran 5 minute warmup followed by 5 x 3:00 "tempo" pace with 1 minute jog rest in between and completed by 10 minute cool down.  I had a difficult time judging a proper tempo pace.  I did the calculations with my watch after the run, and it looks like I did a race pace for the 3 minute segments.  The warm-up, jog rests, and cool down (by my watch) were all between 10:15 and 10:45, which is right on.  However, the five 3:00s were too fast for a tempo pace: 9:04; 9:03; 8:58; 9:12; and 9:12.  Total time was 34:03 and distance covered was 3.51 miles for a 9:42 ppm.
