Pacing progress.

This morning was a good run. The temperatures were not too hot although it was a little humid and I was sweating a like a pig I felt comfortable the entire run. I got a lot of running gear for my birthday so I have been breaking that in and it is wonderful to run in tech shirts that control the sweat better and more importantly help with chafing on longer distance runs. I was extremely happy with my pacing this morning. From the overall time it looks too fast but that is only because I decided to run the final mile hard. The first mile was an 8:28, the second an 8:25, the third a 8:09 and the final 7:20. Tomorrow I have a six miler scheduled and I hope to run a similar pace although I may not add the fast mile at the end. I have been trying to practice having a kick at the end though so I probably will continue to pick up the pace for the final mile in all of my runs.

No new shoes yet, I have just been too busy but I will get them this week possibly not until the weekend though. In other exciting news I pick up my bike from the shop tonight so I will start cross training with that soon too.

4 miles in 32:26
