4xmile repeats (cemetary loop-a couple of neighborhood blocks that I use as mile repeats, some hills both up and down, with the up at the end-I think it is pretty tough and costs me about 10 seconds as compared to a track)

1 mile warmup-wasn't enough, it was pretty chilly

1st-5:45 felt like I was pushing hard, but I was still just trying to get warmed up.

2nd-5:27 probably my most even splits, moved it hard throughout, even up the hills

3rd-5:27 I guess I should say this was also my most even splits because at key points I looked at my watch and every time it read the exact same as mile 2 (but I was working much harder)

4th-5:30 Started off stronger by about 4 seconds by just over 1/2 mile, but I could feel my legs losing it by the end. Still I thought I was going to be a little quicker then the middle two (pushed it very hard on this one).

5:00 minute cool jog between each mile and a 3/4 mile jog home for the total.

Felt good about the run besides not warming up enough. But it was late (for me) and cold (for St. George) and I didn't even want to go. So I am glad I got out and pushed myself.

Way to get out and get in a good workout. I have been so unmotivated lately, I need to do something to get back on track.

Way to get out and do repeats!

I feel the same way as you. I don't think a 1 mile warm-up is enough before repeats. I need at-least 2 or more. Also, I noticed I feel better and stronger during intervals if I run that morning as well.
