I'll keep this entry short so I can go to bed. Ran 8 miles while Lybi watched Pirates of the Caribbean 3 with Holly. The first 6 miles felt good, then I started to get kind of tired. Probably again from lack of sleep. I also pushed it on the last mile just so I could get home. Total time for the run was 59:15, average pace of 7:24/mile. Planning on a long run tomorrow - either 12 or 13 miles, which will put me at either 49 or 50 miles for the week. It is actually amazing to me how 8 miles doesn't even phase me any more - it seems so commonplace, whereas even this time last year, I would have considered it to be a medium-long distance run. I think that says something to me about my level of fitness. Depending on how I feel tomorrow, I may attempt to put in an 8 mile tempo at or below MP. |
