I’m still able to run today after running my 3×800 intervals yesterday
@ 6:53 pace. I dropped down to 172 pounds from an average of well
over 175, mainly from both lack of food and liquids yesterday. I wouldn’t recommend it.
Today’s run was a 3.2 mile hill run at 3% incline on a Precor 966i
treadmill in 31:06 (9:44 pace). Supposedly, that’s roughly the same
level of effort as an 8:44 pace for that length of time.
Related Posts - 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......
- Almost a perfect 12-mile loop through Fern Creek/J-Town #twit2fit 12 miles, 1:55:06 (9:36/mile), 10 straight weeks running. This was my longest run in almost 5 months. I didn't get to start bright and early when the day is the coolest. I didn't run in a public park today (not even through Vettiner). I didn't run across anyone else who......
- This year's World Hunger Relief relay will be a 2 x 12 hour treadmill relay ...instead of a death-defying run back-and-forth between our two campuses (9.2 miles). Bummer.

- A journey of 5,000 miles begins with one mile. 1,189 days ago, on April 24,2006, I began a quest that was doomed to fail like so many times before. I weighed over 220 lbs. At some point during the preceding winter, I weighed over 230 lbs (at just under 5'8"). That's a BMI of 35.5--obese. Something was different this......
- 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).
