Slept in clear until 6:10am. awww that was so nice. :) I missed my weight lifting session but I'll just drink my raw egg shake or something to make up for it.
9.1 miles outside nice and easy. First mile was 9:08 and AP for the run was 8:22. A little faster than the 8:30 pace I vowed to stay above yesterday but in my defense it was dark for most of the run and I had no idea what pace I was running. It felt smooth and easy. I made 3 observations this morning.
1 - HS kids really suck at driving. Seriously pay attention!! I almost got hit by at least 3!
2 - There is a major lack of street lights in my small town. It was pitch black the first 4 miles and I was so glad I wore my dorky headlamp even if it does give me forehead acne!
3 - The south 10mph wind that we always get in Payson and that I almost always complain about felt like a breeze today compared to the winds at the Shamrock half Saturday.
Now to run this same route about 45 seconds per mile faster tomorrow. ha!
PM: 3.5 miles easy. Gearing up for a long tempo run tomorrow. |
