Track Thursday was postponed this week for a run on Peacock Lane... today was Speed Saturday instead!
The sun was out so I put on my shades and ran to Twality Middle School. (The Tigard High track is taken over by soccer players and parents on the weekends)
I planned to do my normal 1600m repeats but ended up running a lot faster than I could maintain for 1 mile at a time. I decided to do 800m repeats instead.
Here are my average speeds for each 800:
8:02
8:11
200m recovery
8:02
8:00
200m recovery
7:59
7:55
200m recovery
7:50
7:50
Then I ran home with a little winding through the neighborhoods. I ended up doing 5.51 miles in 54:31, a 9:54-minute mile average overall.
What a beautiful day for a run!
AND... I've now run 483.69 miles... just 16.31 miles to go to reach my goal!!! :)
