Didn't make it out for a long run yesterday so I was determined to get the job done today. We drove to the dog park, and I ran about 2 miles from there to the trail, then 8 miles on the trail, and 3 miles on the roads back to the house. It was hot and humid, and I was thoroughly drenched. However, I'm pleased that I made it back in one piece. Average pace was 8:02 which I'll take all things considered!
I felt tired this morning, but I knew that I needed to get my butt in gear and run.It was also a good excuse to try out my new Forerunner 610.I tried to replicate the workout that I should have done with the group the previous day.2 mile warm up, then 5, 4, 3, 2, 1, 5, 4, 3, and a short cool down for 7 miles.Didn’t feel great, but pleased that I got it done.
Fairly warm and humid this morning, BUT the sun didn't come out and we did have a nice breeze on the last few miles which was nice. Felt pretty good, but knew I needed to stay steady, and make the whole distance. Ended up with 7:56 average...splits to follow later. Al in all a good way to start the long weekend!
