Tempo day

Today I've been battling some sinus problems . Struggled sleeping last night . I needed to get my long 7 mile tempo in . Thought about hitting it on treadmill but I promised myself to cut treadmill workouts out this year . Only use for easy runs after work . Wasn't feeling up to par about running but needed to get a good workout in to measure my fitness plus reach my goal of 80 miles for the week . I managed to get out the door . I ran 5:36 pace for 7 miles on slight hilly terrain . Thought I should have done better , I was pushing the effort alittle in which I didn't wanna do . Wanted it to be a comfortable 5:36 pace . Wonder if lack of sleep , sinuses plus mileage having anything to do with it . But oh well . Reached my goal for the week . Longest weekly mileage since 2003 . Cutting back alittle next week to get workouts in and hoping for a low 15 5k in Athens on the 11th.
Plus baby due in 3 weeks :)
