Went out and voted then took a 3.50 mile run in the neighborhood. Nothing special other than I was planning on doing some sprints and just couldn't get my legs moving like I wanted. I decided to take a break for a few hours and try it again this afternoon. (8:13 pace)
Afternoon run: easy 1/4 mile @8:10 then 1/4 mile @ 4:36 then finished of the run with 2 3/4 miles @ 8:03 pace. This run felt much better than this morning. I have decided that I need to go find some fun trail runs around 8-15 miles and take as much time as I want to...speed hike. It is time to enjoy the running rather than training all the time. I really admire you guys that run so diligently, training for the next run. This is so new to me. I am glad that I have found the sport of running, now I need to make sure I can continue to have fun with it!
I am hoping the the run Saturday, the Snow Canyon Half Marathon, is an enjoyable and fast run for me. I am plotting things out for a 1:40. |
