Tonight I had a great run. I ran with Carol at Sugar House park. I ran with her for one lap but then I couldn't keep up any more. I did two laps around the outside, and one lap on the inside than added two minutes out and back. The first lap was in 15:11, the second was in 16:08, and the last lap, around the inside of the park, plus the add on was in 15:07. The last lap around the park alone took me 11:30. That gives me a total time of 46:27 which is 7:44 pace. The run felt good, it was hard to keep that pace and I found that if I let my mind wander I would slow down alot and have to speed back up, but if I stay focused I can keep going at the pace I want to. That's the fastest 6 mile run I've went on in a long time. I am glad to know I can do a run at that pace and not be totally dead afterwards. Hopefully I can do most of my runs at this pace from now on. I guess it's not a matter of being able to do it but a matter of making myself do it. (pegasus 53) |
