6.5 Miler

Wednesday, April 8
Nike+: 6.49 @ 54:53 (8:27/mile)
Gear: black/yellow shorts, new white/black phoenix shirt
Weather: about 60 degrees
Ran this one with Posscoon after work and before I went to David Sedaris at Jesse Hall. Felt pretty good, but my knees are hurting.

Week 17, Tuesday

Tuesday, April 7
Nike+: 4.02 @ 32:38 (8:06/mile)
Gear: black shorts, white long-sleeve shirt
Weather: about 50 degrees
Ran this one with Posscoon after work. We jumped on the MKT from his house and took a little journey of the trail that hooks up with it (the same one we traced on Sunday's 12 miler). Nice run at a fairly brisk pace for me.

Last double-digit run before Big Show

Nike+: 12.04 @ 1:42:45 (8:31/mile)
Gear: tights, grey/yellow long-sleeve top, ear-band, H20 bottle, one gel at 6-mile mark
Weather: about 48 degrees (started running about 11:15)
Probably could have worn shorts on this one and maybe a short-sleeve shirt, but as I ran, I cooled down w/ the weather. Knees hurt toward the end, but that's just the way it is at this point. All in all, I had really good run. This was probably one of my faster long-distance paces, thus far.

4 on the Floor

Anytime Fitness
Treadmill: 4.00 @ 31.55 (7:59/mile)
Nike+: 4.01 @ 32:43 (8:09/mile)
It took my Nike watch a little longer to reach the 4.0 mark. I attribute this to a faster pace. I'm going with the treadmill's time of sub-8's on this one. I never thought I'd run this pace again. The training is paying off.

8 Miler before Dr. Drew

Nike+: 8.03 @ 1:09:08 (8:36/mile)
Gear: new black/gold shorts, white phoenix short-sleeve shirt, new sunglasses, H20 bottle
Weather: about 60 degrees
Left work a little early to run before Dr. Drew spoke at Jesse Hall.

5 Mile Recovery from Sunday

Nike+: 5.01 @ 41:55 (8:21/mile)
