Earlier in the week I posted about my 10k, and 2nd in my age group and finishing in 56:52.
Well, on Monday, I took it easy, did 4.5 miles at a leisurely 9:50 pace, and felt really good about it.
Today was a whole other animal. Before my running rest day, I decided to push myself for my run, and for the FIRST TIME......I was able to break 9 minutes a mile over a 5k distance.
3.1 miles.....8:49 avg pace....27:20 total time!!!
Link to all the nasty breakdowns right here....after all.....gotta have the proof!
