My goal today was to have the overall average pace be in the 9s. At mile 7, I realized that all of the miles had been in the 9s so I made the decision to try to run all the miles under 10 minutes. It got tough the last 2 miles and I wasn't sure if I could keep the last mile under 10 minutes but I did!!
I don't know why but after I copied/pasted the splits from Garmin Connect below, I am no longer able to type below that chart so I have to type up here.
I can't believe that I ran 5 of the miles in the 8s! The SLOWEST mile was 9:21! Imagine that - 9:21 as my slowest mile! My fastest mile was the first one at 8:47. Geez, I must have thought I was running a 5K! The last mile was 8:58 which I find hard to believe. I felt like I was going so slow.
This 10 mile run was faster than when I ran the Crim years ago! Of course, the Crim has a bunch of hills that I didn't have today!
Now, if the weather would just warm up and stay there! It was 37 when I started and 39 when I was done. It even snowed very lightly on and off while I was running.

ReplyDeleteThanks!! School was tough on my running; I gained weight and had a lot less time to run. I feel like I am finally running like myself again! I can also run with and keep up with my friends again!
