I have quite a bit to do today so I will keep this fairly short. The IT has been a little stiff since Saturday, so I was a little worried today. I have been working to not go too fast, but I came to the realization that my pace has just become faster since I started. When I was back on the treadmill days back in the early 2000's my pace stayed pretty consistent at a 10 min mile and I neverf tried to push harder. Now I think it has honestly lowered to around 9:30 min mile. It is just were I feel comfortable when I am running, not pushing, but giving effort. Just one of those little things that can really make your day when you feel like you are making long term progress.
That being said, I the warm-up mile has also lowered a bit. I was always 5.3-5.5 miles per hour, but now 5.7 feels easier. It is hard to explain, but when I got slower, it feels like I am no longer in my stride and it is a little uncomfortable. So I really have to focuse to make sure I am doing what has become natural, while taking care of my legs. I am not really sure of the point to saying all this. Just feels good to feel like I am getting better. My 3.00 mile run took 28 minutes and 7 seconds....thanks for reading!
