Weather - 49 degrees, gray skies, windy. Beautiful running weather, wore shorts and 3 light shirts. Decided today I needed to run further than normal, after the first couple of miles I felt good and knew it would not be difficult to run 10 miles. When I reached the golf course at mile 3 I did 8 x 30-90 second strides on the fairways, then returned to Busey Woods and did 3-4 loops, then ran to Brookens Gym for a total of 10.50 miles. The warm air had a positive effect on my lungs, I was running a faster than normal pace and my breath was effortless. At Brookens I did 6 sets of strength exercises, stretching, and 15 minute walk home. #74 |
