Today I woke up at 8 and decided I better get my run in before I left for soccer practice because it was going to get to be too warm when I returned, also I was afraid I wouldn’t want to run once I got home. Once brushed my teeth, had a piece of toast and some water I got out of the door at 8:20, knowing I had to leave for Cleveland Heights at 9:20 I knew I had no time to slack off today. Since I didn’t have too much time I figured I was going to run on main roads to keep me from stopping or slowing down. I did a loop around my side of town. I started going down Bainbridge to SOM to Solon Rd, then took a street over to Liberty and finished up back on Bainbridge. It was a nice run and I finished with a pace of 9:06 minute miles. I realized that on longer days I’m going to start working on pacing myself instead of trying to finish my miles with a fast pace because running fast for a long time is not my thing and it really throws my speed and training off.
Hopefully Lauren and I will find time to run together when she gets home from Vegas, except with teaching summer school in the morning and coach soccer in the evening I think it might be hard to find a time that works for both of us that is not in the heat of the day.
IPod Stats:
Distance-5 miles
Time- 45:32
Average Pace- 9:06
Tomorrow I have a soccer game so I will get to do some sprints and really stretch out!
