AM: (9.5 miles, 1:16:25). little more than 2 mile wu + 5 mile SS run + little more than 2 mile cd. I could not find pace today. Partly it is because I have not run this pace in over 3 months (it is 1/2 marathon pace to slightly faster than marathon pace -- it is pace you could run comfortably hard for 1 hour -- goal is to stay above LT pace; generally, for me this pace is somewhere between 7:35-7:50 min/mile). Anyway ... I ended up running the first mile too slow, the second mile right on and then I missed the mile marker for the 3rd one and somehow ended up running the last two too fast (the third was most likely too fast as well). My cool down was also a little fast, but I think I was just having fun at that point! (20:50, 7:59, 7:34, 8:35 (more than a mile), 7:10, 7:20, 16:53 (cripes 4 mins faster than on the way out!)).
PM: (4 miles easy, 37:40). Pretty tired this afternoon, both because of the run this morning and my day.
Happy Thursday bloggers, stay warm, dry and watch for cars!
