AM - 3 easy miles by myself, average pace o f 7:50/mile. Temperature outside was pretty nice, although I will be even more excited when the temperatures are in the low 60's or 50's when I run. Another 3 miles with Sparky, decided to time the run with him to see how fast (or slow) I was actually running with him. Average pace was actually about 8:07/mile - faster than I thought. It appears I sped up during the course of the run with him, as I had started out with him at about 8:40 pace. Legs felt good, other than a little bit of tightness around the point of the insertion of my hamstrings in the back of my right knee. Worked on stretching that area out this morning, and will do some more stretching later this evening, as well as core exercises.
PM - 1.65 miles with Samuel, average pace of 11:30/mile. His knee was hurting him during the run, so we stretched out his leg, which seemed to help. |
