Streak day 17 #twit2fit

Nothing spectacular…  I decided to add “recovery” days into the streak.  Right now, I have them set at 2.5 miles on Tuesday and Thursday (beginning next week).

2.3 miles in 22’27″ for 9’46″ per mile, 2% incline.   I ran most of the run at 10’00″ pace, with a 9’50″ for about a mile, and a 10.1 mph stride for about 0.1 mile at the end.

  • Mile 3.5 smells like nuoc mam, mile 4 like jasmine #twit2fit /caption] Among the smells that fill the air in late spring, some are less pleasant than others.  There must have been some magical combination of garbage day, warm weather, and fresh rain, which made the air smell like fish sauce.  Not just any fish sauce, either.  My heritage has acclimated......
  • 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......

  • Medium run, up-tempo last 3 miles #twit2fit Streak day 48, 6.73 miles in 1:00:11 (8:57 pace). I decided to do a little up-tempo work for the last 3 miles of my run today, in preparation for Johnny's 5k.  Nearly four miles into the run, I went for a target of 8:00-8:15 pace for the last three miles,......
