Friday - March 6

Run

38m 35s
5.68 miles
06m 47s /Mi

Planned on goign to gym, but took advantage of decent weather. I felt awesome today, like i could've gone 8-10 mile. Darkness limited my route, so i had some quality tempo work. Added another loop on, so i didn't know exact distance until i got home. My first mile was 6:55 and the exact same last mile was 6:28. In the middle i didn't know splits and i haven't run any of my new routes enough to know landmarks yet. WHen i felt good, i would pick it up and i would say i felt good 99% of run.

This week has been good, a mix of running and swimming. I'm feeling recovered from the 5K and it's too abd the snow had to come because i really felt good for that race. Nothing for few weeks then I got a week of annual leave. Maybe some interval work at Pettit Ctr, more swims and runs. Next week, i'm going to try to swim longer distance. The 1000 is good for me, but i have to step it up and maybe hit 1250-1300 minimum.

Not a bad run - first mile was identical to alst both at 6:46. Was chilly and breezy 34F with 10mph winds. I felt pretty good comfrotable with pace, certainly could've pushed harder (either alone or running with someone quicker). Just trying to recover still.
