7.5 steady run
by petetanguay on Jul.28, 2010, under Training Runs
I’ve decided I need to make 7-8 mile runs my normal runs so I get an hour off running in and can work on a quicker pace for longer runs. Kind of in a 5 mile rut. Ran at a steady pace this morning, not trying to run fast but also not at a jog pace. Worked on picking it up when I felt myself slowing down. Never got real fatigued although mile 5-6 was a little bit of a mental challenge. Worked out after my run for 30 minutes and am certain this is going to help my runs. As I think of all the fast runners in the group, the majority of them have a workout schedule as well. Iit was pretty hot out there but also a nice hot summer morning to be out running. You can tell the days are getting shorter as it is dark through most of the run.
