Almost forgot to post this one… went out Tuesday night for a four mile run with the new Asics. Ended up doing a slow seven!
Ran 7.01 miles in 1:19:41 (11:22/mi pace). My 1-mile splits were: 10:02, 11:09, 11:26, 12:00 (ugh!), 11:53, 12:00 (doh!), 11:05. Burned about 1030 calories.
Yeah, it was pathetically slow, but I really enjoyed it. Good run.
There is nothing wrong with hitting a 12 minute mile. I mean, I torture myself the same way. But I want to adopt a new attitude on it. We should just enjoy ourselves.
Agreed… You shouldn’t torture yourself over the pace of your runs. Leave that to me. I do enough of that for the both of us.
