AM 1:20..and some change I was going to run easy today, but a storm is forecasted for tonight thru tomorrow, and it seems like each day I wanted to do a long run last month it snowed just enough to make it unenjoyable. So I took advantage of the calm weather today and did my rest week long run today. I felt really good this morning, so this wasn't a bad choice at all. I ran for 2.36 miles up and down a frontage road by my house, then did 4 laps of 1.74 miles each thru the neighborhood across from my house. These are pretty sweet loops, and I'm thinking of doing some tempo work on them. The first 1/3 is slight downhill to flat, then the second 1/3 is flat and slight uphill right at the end, before turning onto the last 1/3 which is a gradual uphill back to the start. I then ran 1.36 miles back to my house. This was a great run because I felt a little fatigued starting out until about mile 4, then I got into a nice rythm, and by mile 10.4 felt like I could easily do another mile or so, but duty calls, and play time was over. Avg. 7:30 per mile.
