I was able to do a longer run today. I did 10 miles last Saturday and then 10 this Saturday and then next week I hope to up it a mile on the weekends. I am going to try and do 8 during the week and then slowly up my Saturday long run each week by a mile. My splits went as follows; 8:20, 8:16, 8:36 had some hill on that one, 8:04 with some downhill, 8:23 with some more up hill, 7:55 flat, 8:28 more hills, 8:34 even more hills, 8:47 cool down, finished with an 8:34. My Heart Rate maxed out at 151 for an average rate for the run at 144, my average pace was 8:24 which is a 1:10 off my marathon goal pace, total time was 1:24:09. My legs felt a little sluggish towards the end but I was able to pick it up the last mile which was kind of nice. I had a great workout this week I am really proud of how I stuck with it through the whole week, I hope to do the same next. week.
