I did 3 miles tempo (8:15 pace avg) and then I did an interrupted run for the next 2 miles--ran hard 5 minutes and then did a set of crunches and oblique crunches before running another hard 5 minutes.  I ended up doing 3 faster sections (so 4 sets of ab work) before cooling down.  On my cool down I didn't much pay attention to pace, but it was at a moderate pace.

Average pace:  8:09 (I stopped my watch on the interruptions).

Saucony Miles: 6.25

cool workout. I will have to try something like that to vary up the routine.

Were you running outside? Did you just stop by the side of the road and do crunches?

Way to go!

I did my crunches by the side of the road. I'm sure I looked like a doof, but oh well.
