Long Run. . .15 Miles
This was a good day for running eventhough it was very cold this morning. It was 19 degrees when I went out this morning. The good thing is the wind was not that bad at all. I had a goal of running 15 miles for my long run this morning with a 4 mile warm up and cool down.
I did the 2 mile warm up and by the time I was ready for my run I was pretty warm. I wanted to run near the bottom end of my window for long runs 7:34-8:34. The first half of the run I did alright but I needed to go to the bathroom and there was nothing around. I held it and kept going.
Here are my first half mile splits
M 1 8:27
M 2 8:28
M 3 8:33
M 4 8:11
M 5 8:37
M 6 8:48
M 7 9:00
I ended up stopping between 6 and 7 to look for a bathroom but I had no such luck. I always like getting to the end of the first half and coming back home. I know it is over when I stop.
M 8 8:24
M 9 8:04
M 10 8:14
M 11 7:54
M 12 8:28
M 13 8:20
M 14 8:20
M 15 7:46
I felt really good coming back on the second half. I did 2:05:15, 8:19 pace with a 1:83 mile cool down. I am starting to really get back in the swing of things. now. Life is good!
Have a great weekend,
