Wednesday, 22 June 2011 - Written by johnnyk8 [profile] I just noticed I had this blog sitting in the weeds ready to be posted but forgot to do it. |
This morning the plan was to go out for a long run at my confident pace. That is usually 12-15 miles at a 6:45 pace.
Instead of going for distance this time I went out for a set time. After cruising along for 45 minutes I picked a time goal of 2 hours.
That's about 33 minutes longer than my normal HM distance time.
So after two solid hours of pain free cruising I long 17.9 miles. Let's call it 18. So that's 6:40 mi. /mile over 18 miles.
Good times!!! Here are the Splits 0:06:45 0:06:42 0:06:49 0:06:43 0:06:40 0:06:39 0:06:42 0:06:42 0:06:39 0:06:41 0:06:44 0:06:39 0:06:41 0:06:43 0:06:35 0:06:38 0:06:31 0:06:30 2:00:03
I was very happy about this run. More about proving to myself that I can run longer that 15 miles at a pace that I was targeting. Part of me wants to see how far I can go.....
This run completed a good week of training.
40+ miles of running 90+ miles of biking 3.5 hours lifting 40 min of yoga.
Note - those above numbers are breaking my limitations I put on myself. I will back off week of 6/20.
Had a great Father's Day too, Geocaching (saw rattlesnake), great Thai pizza, a breakfast with the fam (I ate the hashbrowns for the first time 3.5 years) and they bought me a toolbox too!!!!
Awesome Stuff -My family rules.
