This has been the longest run this year. I have a 10 miler next Sunday, so I think I can finish it, but the best I can hope for is 9 min./mi pace. I still have not decided if I should go to the race at all. I have to return the chip anyway, and they give out a nice beer glass to all finishers, so I'm trying to pump myself up for that. It's also a nice flat course along the Thames towpath, so could be a nice run if the weather cooperates (or a miserable one if it rains). But it's hard to get excited about racing when I'm so out of shape. I'll have to treat is just as a training run if I go.
Total time: 1:16.05 (9:23 pace). |
