Distance: 1.8 Miles
Pace: 14:35
This was a fun interval run. We did 7 bursts of speed at 5.6 for 1 minute each and then ran at a recovery speed of 4.2 in-between each interval. The terrain was pretty good and mostly flat, however there was one monster hill right in the middle of the run. I thought my heart was going to burst because it was also during one of the 5.6 intervals!
I am feeling stronger and faster. I am halfway done with this running program so will need to find another one to start in January. I have registered for the Half Marathon Training Group and will enjoy that. I have committed to running the half marathon and my goal time is less than 3 hours. I do not feel I can safely ramp up my mileage for the full marathon without risking injury. Next year the Holy Land...
It is time to start my "Long Runs." This Saturday will be my first one. I plan to run the Eastside Hill on the treadmill using google maps. I have walked it before but I plan to jog/walk it... May the force be with me!
