Endure and persist; this pain will turn to your good. - Ovid
Therefore, since we have been justified through faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom we have gained access by faith into this grace in which we now stand. And we rejoice in the hope of the glory of God. Not only so, but we also rejoice in our sufferings, because we know that suffering produces perseverance; perseverance, character; and character, hope. And hope does not disappoint us, because God has poured out his love into our hearts by the Holy Spirit, whom he has given us. - Romans 5:1-5

| AM - Went to gym, did 30 minutes on elliptical, lifted, and stretched.
PM - Ran from work during the noon hour. I decided to run the First Dam Run 10k course for my weekly brisk run. The course markings are still fairly fresh, and I want to be able to commit this course to memory before they fade. I ran the first mile in 5:56 and then a couple 6:01's to go through the 3-mile mark in 17:58. This is on the fast side of the "brisk" pace, but it felt good. After that I couldn't find any more mile markers, but the second half of the course is a net downhill, plus it felt like I increased my pace a little bit. But it must have been more than a little bit, because I crossed the finish line at 35:55, meaning my last 3.24 miles were in 17:57 (5:32/mile). So I failed in running a brisk pace, but did manage a very solid threshold workout and learned a good deal of where I'm at. I think I could probably run a little under 34:00 in an all-out 10k right now. Still have a ways to go, but significant progress over the last month.

| Snowy, but warmer today. The snow was shallow and grippy, though, so good footing. I ran from work through the paved River Trail and then a modified Landfill Loop. Distance was 8 miles and time was 53:20 (6:40/mile). | | Add Comment |
