Meet up with Tim for the first time in a long time for a run.  And we just had to go to the Oval to try it out.  I guess they charge you by what color the day is.  So yesterday was a Yellow burn day 2 bucks.  If it was a red day it would only be 1 buck.  So he was happy to pay only a buck to run.   There was alot of people there running, biking, playing hockey and skating.  It was nice to finally run with Tim again.  So we just ran at his pace.  And the distance in there isn't like a normal track.  So just ran for time.  We ran for 57 mins and change.  So I will count that as a 6 mile run or so.  My longest run this year for sure.  But it felt good and the temps in there were perfect for running.:)

Nice job getting to the Oval! :)

Just fyi: 11 laps on the inside lane equals 3 miles! :)

If you want to get super technical each time you run a lap you can figure out how many seconds it took you and then subtract 10 percent. That'll give you your pace per 400 m (since you actually would have run 442 m). I.e., you could see how long it took you to run 4 laps and subtract 10 percent and end up with your mile split. :) :) :)

(If you are bored, or curious, or whatever.)

Well that is good to know. I just wasn't really focusing on the laps at all since I had someone else to run with. The paces were 9min to 11 mins I would guess. So just went time. But 11 laps is 3 miles that is good to know.

I think though next time I will just keep hitting the lap button on my watch. And get the how many laps that way and splits.
