Plan: Run easy, 8 miles or so.
Actual Mileage: 7.87 miles. I thought it was such a healthy thing that I didn't try to run in circles to get the last 0.13 miles in, either.
Route: This is the "I think it's pretty flat" route that Mom suggested long ago. True story: it's not flat. At all. I head up Erie to Madison Road, then turn on Grandin Road, to Edwards road, back to Erie Ave and then home.
Weather: 29* when I started. Not much warmer when I finished. Wind was minimal. It was super humid.
Wardrobe: Compression socks, Brooks running pants, short sleeve shirt, sweat shirt, buff on my head, and Merrel shoes.
Execution: I didn't set heart rate alarms, but I did well keeping things under control. I was thinking it was going to be rough when my heart rate got to 130 in the warm up, but it turned out fine. I walked up one of the hills on Edwards and a small bit on Erie just before Paxton to keep my heart rate under control
Nutrition: I ran fasted. I had goetta when I got back though!
From today, I learned: It's okay to walk up the hills sometimes. It's fun as hell to run down them.
Bonus: We've driven by this house from the side a couple times. But for this run, I totally went down the sidestreet and took pictures.
