Pace: 10:00 (rolling hills)
Conditions:
Observations:
- Today's focus was to concentrate on nutrition and running the first part of my run slower than the second part. I succeeded with both goals.
- I picked up my pace at mile 16. I still had a lot of energy if I had chosen to run more miles.
- Next week, I will increase my speed for the first part of my run to hover around 9:50. With this faster pace, I'll have a clearer idea as to how much I can realistically push my pace and at what mile that increase should begin.
- There is no way that I would have finished 26.2 miles under 4:00:10 today with my slow pace at the start.
- My final 4 miles were at a pace of 9:38.
