Today was an outstanding day for a run. The temps in the mid 50s and bright sunny skies. Best of all, it was outside and off of the dreadmill.
Stats -- Distance: 3.28 -- Time: 27:50 -- Pace 8:29
Based on a suggestion from a friend, I'm going to go find some Shot Rocks...whatever those are...for my long run tomorrow. Goal is 10min pace which works out to be 3 hrs flat. The struggle with 18 miles, besides the obvious, is finding a good place to run it. I think tomorrow I'll head out towards White Rock Lake and just run for an hour and half and then turn back towards the house...in the future I think I need to do some better route planning, especially as these runs get longer. I hate running laps, it is like a broken record.
Daily Mile sent me this 2010 Year in Review.. pretty cool. I thought I'd share for those of you that don't know about Daily Mile.

My year sand review surprised me! I didn't realize I ran as much or as far as I did. Great motivation! Good luck on ur 18 miler today. Take it easy and do.t worry as much about time for ur first time at it. Just run the distance safely. U can PR distance today and PR time next go about. :)
ReplyDeleteYou've done great with your running, especially given you had a child last year.
ReplyDeleteI've noticed you started out strong this year. Keep it up.
I took your advice and pulled back the reins (a little) - trying to be safe.
