I have a lot on my mind today and really am not feeling like blogging too awful much about my run from this morning.
So I will give a quick and dirty recap and watch the movie Independence Day, something I have watched so many time, but still find enjoyable.
I ran Middle Road plus an extra mile, I didn’t really push, but I did go a little faster than usual.
My splits were:
- Shepard Rd – 8:03
- 2.0 – 16:52 (I think that it is a little longer than 2.0)
- 4.0 – 33:56 (17:04)
- 5.0 – 42:19 (8:22) Good time for this course’s last mile
- 6.0 – 50:17 (7:58) Good last mile !!!
Actually a pretty damn good run, I was happy with the effort and even though it was fairly humid the temps were in the low 70’s which is a hell of a lot better than the 80s and 90s that we have been having lately.
The Adidas are starting to get broke in and I am starting to really like them and it will be interesting how they do on my long run Monday.
My right hip is still bothering a little, but it seems to be getting better, so as long as I am not real stupid about it, hopefully it will continue to get better.

Sweet run man! 8.3 and you got your original goal for the year and you haven’t even hit September yet, nice! Averaging over 150 miles a month-ish is pretty darned good. Plus you hit a 7. A 7? Whoa! I get my speed work on quarters at 8 even, I’m afraid to turn it up the little bit more, yet. Well done!
