I went on my scheduled 3 miler over lunch today and it went great. I didn't intend to push the pace, but I was feeling so good, I decided to. This was the first time in a long time that I ran "fast" on a run. I will now go back into hibernation from the tempo run for a bit. But, it's nice to know that it's still there.
Run recap- 3.01 miles, 24:21, 8:05 pace
Nice run Eric!
ReplyDeleteThat is a really good pace, one that I have to push really hard for in a race!
Great job!
Yeah... I don't run much faster than that either. You'll see my 5k PR is just over 23 minutes. So, it felt good to get the lead out today. Because of my injury/non-injury status, I'd be smart to stay away from too much tempo though. But, it was a lot of fun to push today. I forgot how invigorating it is to go fast.
ReplyDeletegood for you
ReplyDeletethat's awesome. My wife and I will be sticking to 3 miles , 4 times a week, for the next 3 weeks. My goal is to get to a sub 24:30. Keep it up man.
