Pretty good run. It was overcast, so the temps were a little higher than a few days ago. Went with shorts and long-sleeve shirt. Good choice.
Did the WalMart loop (4 miles) plus 1 on the frontage road (west), and back. Miles 2-4 were uphill and into the wind, so 7-9 were downhill with no wind. First 5 were ran in 33:03, last 5 were in 30:13, so a good negative split. I felt good, relaxed. pace felt comfortable. Longest run in nearly 2 months. Around mile 9 my left hip started to bother me (same as a few weeks ago) and around 9.5 miles my right hamstring/butt area started to feel strained like on Wednesday. Rest for a couple days and then go again Monday. Happy with the workout.
Total Time: 1:03:16
Pace: 6:20
