AM - 2 easy miles with Sparky, average pace 8:15/mile. Didn't get to sleep until 10:30 and didn't want to run off only 6 hours of sleep, so I slept in. Will get in another 4 miles this evening. Felt very good this morning, legs felt loose, had some pop to my legs this morning. I hope to be able to have that same pop next Monday morning when I run my race. PM - 4 more miles outside. The temperature was phenomenal - we had had several thunderstorms move through the valley today, and it was only 84 degrees at 8:30 PM. It was wonderful. As a result, I was kind of over-excited, and ran a little faster than I had planned on. Average pace for the 4 mile run was 7:30/mile. |
