So I slept in a little today, see on tues and thurs I usually meet a couple girls at 5am ad then a another gal at 6am. I was up alot later than I usually am last night so I just met up with 6am friend. But dont worry I will get the rest of miles in tonight when I go with the Running Club and plan on getting around 8 miles in. (hopefully the rain will hold off til we are done). Not cold at all this morning!
avg. pace 7:58
PM went with the Running Club after work, small group today mostly cross country runners. Decided to stay on the trail system and do an out and back since its getting dark early. So we headed out and I thought we were going to turn and go down the SC parkway but instead we kept going straight and headed UP the trail that parallels the marathon course. Holy moly I am use to running down it but not UP it. The group took off pretty fast for myself, so I hung back with some others til I got my groove going. Felt pretty good and got in some killer hills. Went out 2.65 and then turned around and headed back. Even though my pace going up was around 8:20 on the outI am putting them in the fast category because I was pushin it on those hills. coming down my splits were7:11, 7:12, and the last .6 was at a 6:50 pace. Avg pace was 7:45 Perfect weather tonight! Sorry Ruth that I didnt get to run with you, I wasnt to far behind you guys and then I turned earlier than you guys did. See you on Saturday !! |
