Recovery run

This morning Randy and I went for a recovery run around the lake. It felt nice to go for 3.57 miles at an easy pace. We finished the run in a little over 9 minute mile pace (he told me he was setting the pace today, and I was fine with that!)

I'm planning another run around the lake tonight by myself. I'm going to run at my recovery pace which is about 8:30/mi. It should be a nice night for running!

Today's total= ________7 miles (well, just a TAD over 7)

My evening run was probably too fast for my recovery run. I ended up running 8:03 pace for 3.6 miles. I wanted to stay around 8:30 pace but maybe this was fine since I felt fine. I am definately feeling defeated by the heat (I think I run faster when it's hot just to get done sooner and OUT of the heat). Nice night for running??? Sure, if you like heat stroke weather. I am DEFINATELY a wimp when it comes to the heat. I can't stand it. But I'm happy I got out for an evening run.

Tomorrow....HILLS!!

Thought for the day: When in doubt...think.
