Lunch: 7 miles, averaged 9:18. HR 144.
Warmish. Got rolling late. Went back to bed after getting the boys in the car. Picked up the boys at school and picked up the downstairs.
PM: 4.3 miles, averaged 9:20. HR 138.
Did 4 x 200 on the middle school track. Felt good to run "fast." Assuming I had the marks right, which was difficult with the grass mowed over it I went: 45, 43, 43, 43. I will try to repeat this once a week or so. I used to do them in the afternoons in Philly for a shorter run. Always enjoyed it. I used to do them near all out. These we hard but maybe 85%. Worked on form and pumping my arms. Beautiful and quiet night to run on the track just 5-7 minutes from the house.
I hit 1000 miles for the year. Surpassed mileage from 2020, 2021, 2022, which wasn't hard to do. I used to have a list of when I hit the 1000, 2000, and 3000-mile marks, but I cannot find it. I think I have it noted on the blog somewhere. From 2013-2019 I think most years I hit the 1000-mile mark in April.
