Ran a mile warmup then 5 miles at about 7:00 pace (6:46, 7:13, 6:49, 7:08, 7:07) then .7 cooldown. ran with tights to see if they would bug and they didn't. Want to be ready for any weather painter's might throw at me. I now know I can run in snow and rain and extreme cold (for a St. George boy), so I should be able to do well at Painter's.
Last night I was playing with my new friend "Garmin" and I accidentally set it to beep if I went under 7:00 pace. so the thing beeped every 30 seconds or so. helped me keep pushing, especially on the uphill parts. I would drop to 7:20 and so I would pick a point and say to myself, "gotta make it beep by the time I get to that point." Kinda fun...
Ran down frontage road past Firehouse and then down washington main street. Went east before telegraph to wash elem. then down past telegraph to 400 s then stepped it back up to telegraph to break up the hill. ran back past walmart then under freeway then back into middleton. |
