Jogging Failboat, Round 2 #twit2fit

When you’re pushing the stroller downhill, you know the wind is working against you.  84° F, Sunny for my run around 1 PM today.  It was moderately pleasant, considering the heat.  I’m still managing to run about 20 sec ahead of my target pace.

5.2 miles in 50:16.09 (9’41″/mile), streak day 29

Also, I bought Superfeet and Mizuno Wave Rider 11s at Ken Combs Running Store today. The Mizunos fit like a glove, we’ll see how they run compared to my old 9s that I wore four pairs of before moving on to my Saucony Trigon Ride 5s.

• My first double run in a while #twit2fit Okay, it's not a classic double for me.  I rarely split runs into two separate runs unless I'm going past 90 minutes (usually not until 120 minutes).  However, I need to restrict my lunch run to 45 minutes and I also need to be able to run at slower than......
• 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......
• Using a crutch? Beating limitations #twit2fit 14 mile long run (14.58) in 2:20:20 (9:38 / mile) A crutch fails: I had yet another crutch fail on me for part of my run:  My Garmin Forerunner 305 lost signal in a low-lying area in the dense fog this morning.  It was less than 2 miles into my......
• Trying to actually run easy. Very nice weather this morning. 65'F outside, partly cloudy, and not too humid. Rain came in about an hour before my run.I tried to run "easy" based on my 5k time. According to Vdot Calculator and Training Paces based on a 21:54 5k (using Daniels' Running Formula, 2nd edition), that......
• 10k "PR" on a tempo run - 45:14 #running #twit2fit My 10k PR is 46:26, which is a 7:29 pace, and my target tempo pace for today was a 7:21 pace.  I had tossed around the idea of running a 10k race this weekend, but decided that I didn't want to reduce my miles enough to make a strong showing......
• 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......
