Three easy peasy miles this morning. Only goal was to stretch out the legs, so I did not take a watch because whenever I do that I always go faster. The goal was a 5k under 20 minutes. The weather over 30 degrees warmer than this morning. The wind gusting in the 30mph range. Started down the road and crossed the first mile in 6:05, not bad. The bad part was I was already feeling tired. I got to another spot where the road didn't continue and I had to add to the run. With about a quarter mile left I hit the twenty minute mark, no goal completed today. But wait the run was 3.25 with the extra turns, and the pace that I was on left me at the equivalent of a 19:55 5k. All is ok. |
