Progression run in the rain tonight, once a cramp in my left foot eased out. Took four miles to warm up/uncramp, then put the hammer down. Mile 5 in 8:08, mile 6 in 7:48. I'd pretty much take a 7:48 average at St. George or Boston right now, but we're a long way from that. One of those runs that just left me with a better outlook on life. I seem to get those more when I push the pace a bit, but I can't push the pace on every run or I'll get hurt. But this was one of the more therapeutic runs lately, left me feeling better about things, even those that have been weighing on my mind at lot. |
