ran out in green valley/bloomington today. 8 miles with an average pace of like 7:45 to 7:30 or something (i finally ordered a new garmin strap to replace my broken one and it got here wednesday so i finally know my paces!) we went out on the river trail then me, krenny and matt decided to make it a loop through bloomington. the loop turned out to be 6 miles so we went out and back another 2 miles. I've really been suprised seeing how much i can do compared to even a year ago! i remember this time last year i had a hard time keeping up on a 7 milerun, and even had to stop a few times and now i look at myself and my breathing wasent forced whatsoever even for a good pace durring a 8 miler early in the training season! the only time i breathed hard was when matt decided to pull a 6:10 last mile! i'm pretty confident that i'll be in really good shappe for the race season! |
