I ran solo this morning. It was cold, around 30 degrees, and dark. I opted for a course through Orem which has lighted streets. It took a while to get moving because of the cold, but I dressed well for it and never got too cold or too hot. The course I ran is mostly level (gradual downhill south/uphill north) and breaks easily into half mile segments (every four blocks). I may use it as a regular run during the winter. Here are my splits for today. I'm recording them to use as a reference point moving forward: 1.14 mi: 8:44/mi (down - warmup) 0.50 mi: 8:03/mi (down) 0.50 mi: 8:11/mi (level) 0.51 mi: 8:04/mi (down) 0.50 mi: 8:24/mi (level) 1.01 mi: 8:42/mi (up) 0.52 mi: 8:11/mi (up) 0.49 mi: 8:08/mi (level) 0.50 mi: 7:50/mi (level) 0.51 mi: 8:06/mi (up) 0.10 mi: 7:18/mi (level) Total: 6:35 mi: 8:18/mi |
