41:52 ==> 8:17 per mile. I ran the same run as Monday (Crockett Park and Arrowhead Drive). I bought shoes last night -- there goes another $100. They are Brooks brand. I think I'll like them. I plan to rotate shoes every other day for a month or two. However, my achilles was sore today while running -- typically it isn't sore during the run. Must have been from my last couple of runs. I particularly felt it around hills. Unfortunately, it's hard to avoid hills on my runs. My neighborhood is an area of rolling hills. I can usually avoid the steep ones and right around my house is quite flat. But I'd get bored running the same quarter mile around my house over and over and over. No skunks in the skunk traps this morning, although our house still stinks. |
