This was an easy run, just to get the blood flowing before the race, and my shortest run in a very long time! It was pretty cold outside (about 45: that's COLD for us desert rats!), but a beautiful morning. I ran on my normal weekday path, and it's usually dark when I run, so it was really nice to run in a beautiful place during the day!
Total time was 47:55, a 9:35 average. My mile splits were 9:41, 9:44, 9:39, 9:36, and 9:14. The quicker pace felt almost effortless compared to the slower miles. However, the cold made the effort seem a little harder, so I need to make sure I'm fully warmed up before the race starts tomorrow. It's supposed to rain tomorrow. :-(
Have a great day, everyone! |
