Went for a run after work. Was in the 50s barely so broke out some warmer clothes to wear on the run. Figured I was going to go a bit slower so dressed a bit warmer. And there was a cold North wind. As I started the run I ran into the wind so the wind breaker was great. To my suprise though. The first mile was alot faster then I thought it would be. With the wind and not running much since the marathon. Did the 4 mile loop with the hill on the 2nd mile and downhill on the 4th. Still had a headwind for the hill mile and came out under 9 min pace which again was suprising. I tried to keep a even pace. By the 2.5 mark though my lower back was tighting up so I tried relaxing it a bit more. Stretched it out at the end of the mile for a few secs. And finished up the last mile downhill. Overall I am happy with the run. And suprised by the end result. Not to happy about the back getting sore though. Felt ok the next morning though. Mile 1 8:22 Mile 2 8:49 Mile 3 7:51 Mile 4 7:11 TT 32:18 AP 8:04 |
