Ran 8.0 miles today. For the first four I ran about a 6:30 mile, and I picked it up for the last four, completing them at an average of a 6:10 mile. I am trying to pick up pace as the run goes on to build up more stamina. A little windy, but overall a good run. I am happy because I am starting to get back into the groove of things. After I outdid myself with the 15 miler last week, I felt bad the next couple of runs. I feel like I have powered through the "slump" that I have been in since that run, so I can tell that my body is becoming more familiar with working hard. |
