8 mile loop in the morning. temps in the mid to hi 30's and i was hot the whole time. first mile was 7:34, next 3 were sub 6:50, next three ave about 7:15 just running a comfortable pace. on the last mile i decided to try to catch the 7:00 guy. first 3rd of the last mile is uphill then levels before a slight downhill to my house. last mile was 6:12. happy with the run. happy that i got a good start for the week. i will probably beable to get a few extra miles in over the next two weeks. i won't be at work as much and there will be a lot of junk food around. quite often i will decide to go for a run rather than eat the junk. |
