Longest run ever this past Friday, at a local(ish) race. Two laps of a somewhat hilly course for a grand total of.... 5 miles. I know, it's not much, but considering last October I was barely running one!
I had an okay time, in that I stayed right around the average pace I'd been training at, even though it was a longer than usual distance and with hills. So yeah.
5 miles, official time: 48:40, 9:44 pace, 802/1050 total (haha)
It was rather depressing to have the winners come across the finish line right after I'd passed it for my first lap (ah well)
Today did a short, 2.59 run after a fight with The Boy. We ran a bit faster than usual, I think cause I was pissed off and didn't want to talk to him. Ran at a 9:30 pace.
I'm 1/4 of the way to my 100-mile goal for the summer, and the tri is next week, so I'll probably do only one normal run on Tuesday, with maybe a short run on Monday following my bike just to get one more Brick in.
It has been freaking hot recently around here!
