I ran up Wade road. It feels good to be back in town. I used the foot pod for the first time. It gave me my cadence for the run, which was 182 spm average. I dont know very much about it but the little paragraph garmin has on it says that is in the more experienced or faster runner zone. I guess I am happy with that. I guess I will see what it shows for the next while and see if I can read something about cadence and what I should be doing to get faster.
