Morning run, temp 33'

Felt much better than yesterday.  Since I haven't been doing any kind of speed due to to many injuries I decided to do one mile at HMP. I think my body might be ready to do some HMP tempo runs.  My tendon-bum-itis is still around but mild.

Noon run, cloudy, temp 37'

I decided it was time to see if I could run under 7 minute miles.  I accomplished the goal but I didn't feel smooth.  I felt like I was pushing the pace to much and my legs wouldn't flow with ease.  I guess I need to do more faster running.

Half the run was nice, the other half was hard.

I signed up for the Riverton Half on Saturday.  Hope the wind dies down for the race.

Riverton half, mostly sunny, very windy, temp. 35-40

I realy enjoyed the course. I liked that it was only 10 minutes from my home. To bad the wind had to blow so hard. I held back a little because I'm going to run another half marathon next week and I didn't know what kind of shape I was in due to the lack of speed work I've been doing. The race was much more enjoyable holding back just a little. The last two miles I decided to let loose and really run. My tendon-bum-itis didn't like that to much.

It was good seeing RivertonPaul, Walter, Shimelle and husband, Peggy and I think Annette Lynnette that was running with her. Miles are as follows

1 - 6:44 I ran with Peggy & Lynnette for the first 3 miles.  They were the perfect pace so I wouldn't go out to fast.

2 - 6:56

3 - 7:09 20:48

4 - 7:02

5 - 7:16 Against the wind miles 5-8

6 - 7:40 42:46

7 - 7:33 The desire to really kick into the next gear and push hard was still there in my old age.  I suppressed it until the last two miles.  I need to get into better shape before I can really push a half marathon like I want to.

8 - 7:35

9 - 6:51 1:04:45

10- 7:15

11- 6:48

12- 6:29 1:25:17

13- 6:13 Down hill

13.1 - 1:32:22          Mile avg. - 7:03  10th overall, 3rd in Age Div.
