This morning I ran 11.01 at a 7:12 pace. Three miles of it with my dog who set a pr at 7:40 pace, of course I've been holding him back. I'm sure he could do 4 minute miles if I let him go. Pretty much this run was around the city, and it took me about 4 miles to really get into this run. I did a couple fartlek's in the middle of the run just to see if that would keep me interested during this easy run day. Lunch Hour: I ran 4 miles on my lunch hour at marathon pace, exactly a lot slower but will call it near marathon pace (6:37). Did this around the city and it was extremely hot. I definitely like the morning runs versus the afternoon heat. I ran by a lot of construction, we are finally getting a Chili's and Texas Roundhouse restaurant here. The run was with little effort and I felt really relaxed. |
