Distance: 6 miles
Time: 46:39 minutes
Pace: 7:47/mi
Comments: After a day off and a day slack, I felt a bit rusty out there but got through the effort with a strong showing, nonetheless.
I did a pretty good stretch beforehand but used the first mile as he warm-up. I tried to keep from doing anything at all fancy but I still came through with a much quicker pace than I expected.
Most of this run was through the magic of disassociation. I really didn't focus on my running much at all. Which is probably best because I really haven't felt very motivated this week. Probably the result of the massive mileage over the past two weeks.
