Tonight, ran from the Y through Deming Park and back in a Course record 54:35 by over 3 minutes. Felt absolutely great tonight. Temp cool 51. Legs burned a little the first mile, yet went 6:35. Dropped down to 6:30 pace and hit half way in 28:17 (second half in 26:18). Last mile (slight downhill) in 5:18! Felt like I could've gone a little faster, and I could have held 6 minute pace for probably another 30 minutes. Another breakthrough run. Took a 30 minute nap during lunch today instead of doing the Octane. Didn't really plan on running hard tonight. 11 more days for my next shot at breaking 1:20 in the half marathon. It was good to get this run under me since I've been struggling to get out the door. I've run every day since we got back from vacation on June 30th. That's probably the longest stretch in my 26 years of running. |
