I had a great run this morning. I wanted to sleep in a little, so I didn't run with Lisa. I ran on the trail. It was a little windy but other than that perfect running weather. My splits were 8:39, 7:58, 7:50, 7:44, 7:49, 7:36, and 7:29. Average pace 7:53. This was basically a tempo run for me.
Ogden marathon is in 2 weeks. I have no idea what to expect. I've averaged 40-50 miles a week for the last 6 months, but most of those miles have been slow. I haven't run any hills up or down and I've had very few runs over 17 miles. So I'm thinking of about running the first half at an 9:00 average pace and then just seeing how I feel after that. I would actually be happy with anything under 4 hours at this point. |
