Strange run today that ended up being solid rather than spectacular. I ran from my house to the annex (about 3 miles), then ran with a group doing 12 miles for about 5 miles, then I kept heading north when they made the turn back towards the annex. I ran on my own for several miles before bumping into a coworker with about 5 miles to go. His route took him right past the house so I stuck with him until the end of the run. I ended up with a 7:42 average, which is slower than I'd have liked, but given that there were so many solo miles, and the higher number of miles I've put in this week it was a solid performance! Here are the splits: 8:05, 7:16, 7:48, 8:21, 8:05, 7:41, 7:39, 7:26, 7:48, 7:36, 7:38, 7:51, 7:42, 7:31, 7:32, 7:32, 7:24, 4:55 (7:30 pace for .65 mile). |
