73F, 73%, 13mph. 2.36 in 20:26 for an 8:38 pace, splits 8:38, 8:35, 8:42
Up at 5:10 this morning to try to get an earlier start. I am turning into an (my) old man. The difference in traffic at 5:25 vs. 5:45 is amazing.
Watched a heavy storm yesterday from my big window here at Rice, though it didn't last long; just long enough to cool things off, relatively. This morning while walking here it was almost chilly. Welcome, June! | Comments(1) |
| | 75F, 100%, calm winds. 2.31 in 20:11, splits 8:22, 8:52, 9:23. Palpably hotter/tougher conditions this morning, as my splits illustrate. Before my watch beeped the 2nd mile reading, I thought I had sped up from the first mile. Same with the last 0.3. I think a great indicator that you're out of shape/overmatched/not feeling it is when you steadily slow down despite feeling like you're speeding up. Thought for the day. | Comments(2) |
| | 73F, 83%. Felt just as humid as the 100% on Tuesday. 1.99 in 17:50 for an 8:57 pace. Slow, dragging morning. Right about 1.95 I stepped weird on my left foot and couldn't run any more, so I walked about 0.2, then ran the last 0.2 again because the pain vanished as quick as it came. Didn't start my watch again for fear of confusing the satellites and messing up my data. | Add Comment |
