4.27 in 51:17 (12:01/mi pace) For the second day in a row I was forced to run shortly after dinner and it showed up in another side stitch. Since I was focused on a nice slow 4.0 mile run without any concern about pace I was able to slow up and focus on some deep breathing to get rid of the pain. A few nagging twinges in the left knee and some soreness in the lower abdomen but nothing that reached the uncomfortable level. Since I ran with the Nike+ I don't have any mileage splits, however the paces shown on my chart at the website were
11:11/mi at 1.0 mile
12:30/mi at 2.0 mile (my turn around point was at the top of a small hill)
12:17/mi at 3.0 mile
12:17/mi at 4.0 mile
I thank Van Morrison and his laid back music style for keeping me at a nice smooth pace tonight.
