I took my 8 month old for a 4 1/2 mile runjog in the jogging strollerfailboat. I’m already slightly unaccustomed to running in the sunny warm weather, running on hills, running without foam cushioning (used my Mizunos today). I decided to add to that a nice bulky jogging stroller and a 15 pound child.
This wasn’t so bad until I started running into a head wind and the 8 mph breeze was being fully caught by the jogging stroller, dropping me from an effortless 9’30″ pace jog to a taxing 11+ minute pace jog. Nonetheless, I stayed under my easy target pace of 10 min/miles:
4.76 miles in 47’05″ for 9’54″ / mile

- Nice progressive pace run on a double-run day #twit2fit #running One pitfall that I've fallen into is not being able to push the pace as necessary on my runs. The beauty of this run is that it was both the second run of the day and got me to 25 miles in two days: The first mile went off at......
