I went to the TTU running track today while away from home for Christmas. It was 14 degrees out but I made myself get out anyway. I needed to work off all the junk I had been eating and was about to eat. It was a hard run, possibly because of the junk in which I had been indulging.
I set out to do 33 minutes and accomplished that goal. Actually, my watch said 32:35 when I stopped running, but it appeared to be running very slowly, especially at first. I think sitting out in the cold car all night effected its performance.
In the 32:35 I did 11 laps in lane 7 of the track. 4 laps in lane 1 equals a mile, so 4 laps in lane 7 equals a little more than a mile, but I'm not sure how much more. I'm just going to go with the 4 laps = a mile equation to be conservative. 11 laps would be 2.75 miles. I was really pushing to keep running by the time I started the last lap but was able to find some reserve energy and really ran the last lap pretty hard.
Today's Stats: I did 2.75 miles in 32:35 for a per mile pace of 11:51.
Next up: Another 33 minute run.
