Got up late today so I had to run on the Treadmill at home. It would have took me too long to get ready to run outside. The only apparel for the treadmill is running shorts. No shirt because it gets too hot even in the basement. I ran 5.7 miles at a 7 minute average. This is all I could run, because I ran out of time. I was a little sore today I think because of the fast uphill running yesterday. I feel I need to get better running uphill faster. I have a good aerobic balance running uphill, but when it comes to speed and pushing it I'm weak in that area. I will run outside on my lunch hour. I don't have to go home on my lunch hour today. Lunch Today outside was amazing it was 41 degrees. Everything was melting. The only problem is we had a wind advisory all day till tomorrow morning. The wind was blowing at 38mph and gusts up to 55mph, and the wind was continuous through the whole run. I ran 8.3 at an overall 6:52 pace in 57:05 minutes. The first 4.3 miles were in the headwind and it was hard, but not as hard as I thought it would be (Splits: 7:29, 7:32, 6:45, 6:54). The next 4 miles were in a tailwind and I just relax not pushing anything (splits 6:39, 6:31, 6:23, 6:39). I felt kind of fatigued before the run. I think tomorrow I'm not going to do a long run but take it easy. Because I have to work probably to after midnight putting security patches on our Solaris 10 systems. |
