Today I went out with my friend Andrew (great HS runner with a 5k pr of 16:40) down the infamous Holmdel course for an easy 6 mile run. Had a great time and looking forward to our season together this fall.
Unfortunately we had to take a small break at the 5k point because the park was closing and we moved our cars in fear of a ticket.
6 Miles - 48:59 (8:10 avg)
Mile 1 - 8:08
Mile 2 - 7:21
Mile 3 - 7:34
.1 Jog to cars - 0:51
Mile 4 - 8:24
Mile 5 - 8:31
Mile 6 (.91) - 8:07
2 Laps on the track worth of strides, stride the straights jog the turns.
Lots of steep rolling hills and car dodging on the tight shoulder at the end. All in all a GREAT run considering how crappy I've been feeling. Honestly this run felt great and was a real confidence booster.
I'm hoping I can hold up for the 3-4 mi. tempo run scheduled for tomorrow. Guess we'll find out.
