So...the days go by faster than I realize. Here it is Thursday and I haven't started my half program yet. I skipped the 4x400s I was supposed to do, and did the 3-mile tempo run. My goal was to run it at a 10:47 pace. I actually ran most of it at 10:42. But I also took 3 walk breaks.
The final stats:
3.01 miles
34:05
11:32 pace
433 cal
My pace breaks down to a 2:34:22 half marathon, based on the program's formula (you should do your tempo runs at your half marathon pace, minus 15 seconds). I am okay with that at this point, since I am not in any sort of shape! That's only a minute or so slower than I did Leaf Peepers. (Of course I'm fooling myself to think I could run 10 more miles at this point.)
Sunday's weather is mostly sunny and a high of 35, so I am hoping to get out on the roads and do 6 miles.
Tomorrow: upper body workout!
