  • 10 miles, 1 MP, 1 Tempo, the rest were just enjoyable.

So liberating to get out in the sunshine and blue skies and just run. :)  I did a very similar run 10 days ago.  My tempo mile today (mile #3 @ 7:19 avg pace) is 27 seconds faster than 10 days ago (7:46).  My overall average pace is exactly the same (9:23), but I find it interesting that my heart rate was 6 average beats per minute slower today even though the temperature was much warmer than the same run 10 days ago and it was at the same pace.  My heart is getting strong again!

  • 16 miles, 4 of which were around marathon pace (a little slower, but I'll count it since it was going uphill)
  • I can't believe I'm running a marathon in 7 weeks, eeeek!  My legs need some miles on them for sure
  • I didn't have ANY achilles issues... just the regular "my feet/legs are hurting from all this running"

Such a fun run with everyone!  I love being with my running friends, it's definitely a highlight of each week. :)  And thank you Smooth for the yummy treats!  Even though you are so busy with all that's going on!

We missed you Paul, hopefully you can get back to running soon!  And a shout out to Bryanna in Idaho if you're reading this, I wish we could run together.  Hope you're doing well. :)
