True story - the week after my period, there's no limits on my energy. In honor of that, I ran 7 miles this morning, around Lake Nokomis. Before work. Just for fun. Sunrise over the lake was gorgeous.
I have a long term goal of knocking some serious time off my marathon finish. Short term that means working to keep runs this distance faster.
- Mile 1 - always painfully slow
- Mile 2- picking it up
- Mile 3 - the pace is actually faster because of waiting for a light to cross Cedar Ave
- Mile 4 - Boom.
- Mile 5 - hello glycogen depletion.
- Mile 6 - the running pace is actually a bit faster; there's a stop light in this mile too
- Mile the last - it was actually 6.8 miles and I used the end as a cool down.
