didn't get a run in at all yesterday. just some good hard work all day and a nice dinner at in and out burger. was feeling a little beat up all day so not running was probably good. woke up this morning and told my wife she could go out for a run cause i didn't feel like it. i ended up going out at lunch time for an awesome run. air was cool and clean from all the rain yesterday. i wanted to do a tempo/time trial run to test my fitness compared to last year and last time i ran it. i ran my 8 mile loop which is actually 7.95. i ran it in 48:59 minutes. last year on june 6 i ran this same run in 52:00 prior to summer games. late last year i ran it around 51:00 so to run a 49:00 is a good improvement. i felt pretty good. the uphill coming back home didn't seem to bother me as much as it used to. hopefully i can get in a good track session later this week as well as some good easy pace miles. 4 more easy miles in the late evening. |
