Big crowd at the race today, I did not see anybody that I knew. I was suprised to see my cousin Kevin Richins, he also did the the 10k and his wife and son I think did the 5k.
My goal for the run today was to try and get it done under 50 min. which would be a pr, but I always seem to come in just over the 50 min mark. I felt like I did ok considering my training the past month has not been were I would like to be. I think my daily runs need to be around the 8 to 9 mile range. I will try and work on that in the coming month. My mile splits were as follows.
Mile 1. 8:53 All up hill
2. 7:37 some down hill and then flat
3. 7:41 all flat
4. 7:59 started to feel like my stomach was going to be upset. Held it down.
5. 8:18 start of some more uphill
6. 8:25 All uphill, started to have that wack feeling again.
.2 ended in a 7:46
My average pace was 8:08. That seems to be my best pace so far in my short running hobbie. Hopefully tomorrow I can get in a long run. See ya then. |
