7.49 mi, 1:08:37, 9:09 avg
Day 2 of the marathon plan week #1. Another 7 miles "easy" followed by 6x100m strides which I was supposed to do yesterday but moved today.
Ran from my house, south down the trail, past Lake Dan, and then a tiny bit onto Tarpon Ave. to get to 3.5 miles. First mile, slower but not too bad at 10:07, then the rest were in the 9's execpt for one mile at 8:56, felt pretty steady overall. Weather was a little bit warm but cloudy and some breeze so overall pretty nice. Got the strides average pace down to 5:42, a little bit better than what I thought I could do.
They are continuing to replace uneven/cracked slabs of sidewalk on Robert Trent Jones Blvd (which for the past few years have had orange paint to warn about the uneven spots), so had to run around onto the street on the latest section to be repaired.
