I did not feel like running, but needed to get in a training run...I do have a race coming up.
The weather was warm, low 80's or so, which I throughly enjoy during most life activities, but presents a bit of a challenge while running for me.
I told myself to do 3 laps around the lake...3.48 miles and stop if I didn't want to keep going.
I got to my third lap and decided I had a little more in me, so I decided to go to 4 miles, stop for water and do a loop around a part of the neighborhood that I thought was a mile, I was wrong, but that was actually ok...
I passed 5 miles, near my house, but then I decided I'd just run a 10k...and I finished in 57:08.
I felt like I was going slow. I didn't really check my pace because I wore John's Garmin and it isn't set up like mine and finding this out made me quite happy! It's not quite my goal pace for my next half marathon, but it's pretty darn close...just a few seconds per mile off that pace to beat a 2 hour half.
Maybe I'll get my sub 2 half this spring afterall!

YAY! How exciting! I'm hoping to PR my race in April, and if that, go sub 2. That's my dream to go sub 2 for a half... One day!!! You're on track to do it ;) I can feel it!
Congrats! :) That's great!!!
P.S. I tagged you in a post today that you should check out ;)
Good luck with your training! I wish my knee would get better so I could start running again. Till then I will live vicariously through you! :)
WOW! GO GIRL! That is amazing.
I wish it was warmer here. . . we got our first big snow today. Not much more running for me. Booo,
Happy running!
