Thursday, August 5, 2010

Well, after days (maybe weeks) of 90 degree temperatures and the hottest day of the year yesterday, I finally got to run when it was a "cool" 86 degrees. I'm afraid the coolness won't last long. The forecast is for Tuesday to be at 100.

Usually, Mile 1 is my fastest mile. Today, however, it was my slowest at 9:07. Each mile got a little faster - 8:52, 8:49, and 8:34, for the final 3 miles of my 4 miler. A total time of 35:22, an 8:51 pace. It seems I am on a running roller coaster. Yesterday's 5 in 10:37, today's 4 in 8:51. It's almost a 2 minute difference in time for just 1 more mile.

Heart Rates: avg. 162, max 186, rest 58. Recovery from 186 to 133.

Good news! Our neighbor has leased-to-own his house. The tenants have until January to buy, so it is probably at least rented until then. So, no mowing! We only had to mow it 4 or 5 times.
