I'm not really sure how many times I've done the week 4 routine. It just felt really good to be running this morning. It sucked getting up before 6 when it was still quite dark and cold. I'm really looking forward to next Sunday when time changes and it's light out when I wake up. I'm also looking forward to the bubble going up at the pool so I can get back to swimming. I'm not sure when that will be because it will need to be drained and resurfaced. I'm hoping by January at the latest.
Today's run was uneventful. The first three minute and five minute segments were incredibly easy. After that I felt like I was pushing myself a little. I had enough left to really sprint the last 15 seconds or so.
My pace was right on my average. I arrived at my turnaround exactly when I expected and back to the car in under 32 minutes. Overall not bad considering I haven't run in nearly two weeks. I'm back on the wagon, though. I plan to follow the program through to the end from here on out barring any unforeseen circumstances.
My goals:
1. Turkey Trot 5k on Thanksgiving day - hopefully improving over my performance in the September 5K
2. Be able to run 30 solid minutes by the end of 2010
3. Have 100 total miles under my belt by the end of 2010
Today's stats: 2.48 miles in 31:46 for a pace of 12:49/mile. Slightly better than my average pace.
