FIrst week of training is over! I move on to week 2, which is a little harder, and workouts involved "striders" and up- tempo bike intervals.
But, today, was just a basic 45 minute run. I was up a little later than usual, and didn't get out the door until about 8:30.. the sun was shining and the humidity is back a little. It was hot! The first 30 minutes seemed pretty decent, but the last 15 were killer. I was slow (averaged 11:58). I did a fairly hilly run (Longacres). I'm hoping this week, with starting to do some speed work, I will be able to start picking up the pace!
So: 3.83 miles in 45 minutes... blah. This might have a little to do with having a little too much fun Saturday night at dinner and the Lynx game!! :) But it was worth it!
