Onto week 8 of marathon training. Last weeks runs ended up being wednesday, thursday, friday, sunday. i forget why i didn't run tuesday but it's all good cause i got it in. i was going to go 4 days in a row and run on saturday because the weather was supposed to be nicer than sunday but it ended up being cold and cloudy. Sunday's weather wasn't too bad. It was very windy, however, so that run was a bit slower. I could feel the wind slowing me down on one long road! That mile ended up taking about 9 minutes. Today is an off day (other than P90X legs and back)! The first 3 runs of the week will be the same as last week, except Saturday gets cranked up to a 5 miler! I'm glad today is off too...it's supposed to be the coldest day of the week.
Tuesday: 48º
Wednesday: 53º
Thursday (Turkey Day): 58º
Saturday: 56º
Definitely going to stay on track this week to get those great weather runs in. I'm going to set a goal and try to stay at a steady 9 minute pace for each mile for the 5 miler. This will be the longest run I've done in a few years for sure so right now, it seems long! If I can pick it up a little for the final mile, I will!
That's all for now!
