Cold this morning, 18 degrees. Luckily not much wind. Tried to keep the miles consistant throughout the run. 7.85 in 56:34 (7:13s). Hit the 3.05 mile mark in 22:10 (7:16s), so it looks like it was fairly consistent.

12pm, 43 degrees and a slight breeze. 8.2 mile run today with 10 100-300 yard hills built in. Hills ranged from what I would consider slight to significant. Running time was 56:49 (6:56s). I'm having trouble figuring a few things out. The pace I'm running seems to be quick, perhaps too quick, considering 2-3 months ago my base pace was in the 7:20 range. It seems now that its around the 7:05 range. The workouts are not easy, but I've also put a few pounds on and surely lost some degree of fitness having only ran about 10 times in the last 5 weeks. I guess it seems that the pace is faster than I should be going, and it doesn't feel easy, but then its certainly not 'difficult either'. Somewhere in between. I just don't know if I should go with this and assume that my body has made a jump, or if I should back off for fear of crashing later in the training cycle. It honestly 'feels' about where I should be for a base run, but the actual ppm seems too fast. |

3pm, 45 degrees and very windy. The wind was terribly inconsistent -- stiff and swirling. Battling it was tough, having it at my back was great, but I could never tell when it was going to hit and from where. First Saturday Long Run on the road to Boston today, 12.2 miles in 1:27:58 (7:13s). Pace felt very good, comfortable, yet not slow by any means. |
