8.0 miles in 59:02, 7:22/mi, HR 156. 1.5 miles in 13:22, 8:54/mi, HR 137 with the dogs. Felt oh so tired this morning, but managed to wake up and come run time felt pretty good, especially since the promised rain had not manifested yet and I was treated to another sunny day in the 50s. Right calf muscle had a knot in it on waking this morning, but it worked itself out a couple of miles in and I felt pretty good throughout the run. I've been winding up on the fast side of my Easy run pace, so it's probably time for another race to baseline fitness. The dogs were in rare form today, so I decided to keep going as long as they were in the mood to pull me along. Shy of the 3/4 mile mark they finally slowed, so we rounded it off to a nice 1.5 mile jaunt out and back. Brooks Adrenaline (Yellow) - 296.25 miles. |
