AM: 10 miles, felt pretty lousy on the way out, light fartlek on the way back, just to end the misery.
PM: 5 miles. Late afternoon run with Quint. Mostly to battle the summer slog, we came up with a running game. The rules were:
- Set watch to beep every 1/2 mile
- No looking at the watch except when it beeps
- We have to stay together
- Every 1/2 mile has to be faster than the last, otherwise game over
We got through 4 miles like that, starting at 8:45 pace and ending a little under 6:30. It wasn't intended as a workout per se, but getting a little quality was a bonus.
Mostly just looking for ways to break up the summer running. Other ideas under consideration are:
- Superhero / Carnival costumes
- Parkour
- Acting out historical scenes
Quint isn't actually aware of these ideas yet.
