Lunch - medium workout. 1/2 mile warmup at 8:00 pace, then 5 miles at MP and 1/2 mile cooldown at 8:30 pace. Was able to maintain the pace, but it wasn't as easy as last time - perhaps because I didn't get enough sleep last night. Lungs were more taxed than normal, although the legs were fine. At the end of the run, I did a 2 minute cooldown (walking), and my HR went from 168 to 94 by the end of the 2 minutes.
PM - 1.5 miles with Samuel, average pace of 10:15/mile. This in spite of him deciding he didn't want to run for his "smoothie", even though he was pretty close the entire time. Then just before dinner, I ran another 0.5 miles with Joseph because he was acting a little too hyper. We averaged about 11:00 pace or so. |
