Streak, Day 5: 2.81 miles in 27’01″ #twit2fit

Yesterday was a “tempo” day–a 1 mile tempo.  Maybe that’s an interval.  Needless to say, I thought I could run a 7 minute mile, but I lost the pace at about 4/10 of a mile and struggled to keep a 7’20″ mile.

Coming off of that effort with a little bit of pain, I had my physical therapy visit today.  Some of the pain was taken care of, but I still have a little nerve pain.  I still managed my “easy” run tonight, keeping with +0.1 mile per day progression and the +0.1 mph per 1/2 mile for treadmill runs.

Run time:  4/2/2009 6:10 PM

Course: 1% Sole F80

Distance: 2.81 miles

Duration: 27:01

Pace: 9:37 / mile

Shoe: ASICS Gel-1120 (AS12-1)
