Temperature was 9 degrees this morning with only a 9 mph wind. The weather said last night that we would have are coldest day in years for the first of April in a long time. With the wind not blowing bad it was fine. I ran 11.3 miles at a 6:53 pace in 1:17. I picked it up towards the end of the run. I did my Satterfield hill loop. mile 7: 6:25 downhill very easy mile 8: 6:17 downhill didn't fell like I was doing much. mile 9 6:18 downhill just little gravity pull me down the hill mile 10: 6:03 flat picked it up a bit, but didn't feel too difficult. mile 11: 6:32 flat cooling down a bit. My left calf where I fell up the stairs the other day is still bothering me a bit. The test will be on a long run to see if it gets sore at all. Evening: I only wanted to run 3 miles tonight after work, because I knew that's all I would have time for because of the busy day of configuring two Sun server with 8 CPU's, with a Raid setup.. I got off work at 5:30pm and needed to pick-up my daughter by 6pm, but I wanted to just run slow, because I kind of felt sore today. I don't know what happened but it wasn't slow like I planned. I ran 3.3 miles at a 6:35 pace in 21:45 minutes, splits (7:19, 6:35, 5:54). Tomorrow I'll just try to run an easy run. I want to hit about 70 miles this week for a taper, and I'll probably do a long run of 15-17 miles maybe some miles at marathon pace.
