1:45pm, 38 degrees. Great day. Sun shining and melting the slush off the streets. Ran with Matt today for the first time. We raced the Glendale Firehouse Run back in October and finished 5 and 6 overall about 15 minutes apart. I called him earlier this week to see if he was training. He's running a marathon in KC a week before I run St. Louis.
We met up after about 1.5 miles and ran 15 together. Total run today was 17.5 in 2:13:31.
1st 5 miles in 40:25 (8:05s), next 3.75 miles in 28:01 (7:30s) [this was an 8.75 out and 8.75 back -- 1:08:26 at the half way mark], next 3.75 in 27:26 (close to 7:20s) [both sections of the 3.75 had considerable hills], finishing 5 in 37:38 (close to 7:30s).
A great run. I had no intention of running that far today, I'm glad I hooked up with Matt.
