What a really nice run. 65 degrees, sunny, light breeze. Needed sunscreen even. And brought a handheld on a lunch run. And I've had 6 days off. (Involuntarily to be sure, but definitely had fresh legs. :))
Did the math and I'll have time for another 6 week cycle before the marathon once this one is done. I might actually be able to pull off something slightly faster time wise than the last one. Not going to get my hopes up yet.
I 'stalked' a gal for about a mile. We merged at essentially the same speed. at the same time, and she couldn't shake me, and I wasn't going to speed up long enough to pass her and then slow down once I got past her. Finally went our separate ways when I hung a left for the bridge.
My right toe is a little achy again, but I'm sure I wasn't paying attention to form the way I should. It will probably go a way again once i get things stretched out again.
6.16 miles in 1:05:50 (10:42/mile) @ 140 bpm
1 - 9:56 @ 135 (always love that first mile. It makes you hope for the best. :) )
2 - 10:34 @ 139 (and then reality sets in. :) )
3 - 10:56 @ 137
4 - 11:19 @ 140
5 - 11:00 @ 142 (may be feeling better, but I couldn't make it up Eastlake. grrr.)
6 - 10:26 @ 142
.16 - 10:32 @ 142
Oh, hey, cool... This is post # 300. Yay me. :)
