I ran after work today, I was able to get out around 4:40 or so and I was able to run in shorts it was nice. I ran out towards Payson via canal road and I just tried to work on my form and enjoy the nice crisp air, it was beautiful! My average pace was steady at 8:18 with a total time of 33:58, I felt pretty good but the plan is to just run around 4 to 5 miles a day and then try and throw in a longer run mid week or so. I only have a 10K on my schedule like in March so I'm not going to start hammering a whole lot of miles at this point, I want to work on speed and maybe do some hill and strength training on my legs and such. If I end up doing St. George again this year then there will be plenty of time to up miles in the early summer... I always seem to run to much in the winter and spring and them I'm fighting injury for the rest of the year so I am going to try a different approch for a change. I want to enjoy running again not feeling like I have to run because of a race coming up... Today was just a real enjoyable run.
See ya tomorow. |
