Distance: 4 miles
Time: 39:52
Pace: 9:57 min/mi
Comments: Much better weather today but still pretty chilly out. I waited a while but didn't want to put this off all day. I also did my daily upper body workout before the run. That is going to take a bit of getting used to.
No land speed record today. No negative split. The only big positive was keeping it under 40 minutes. But I really wasn't planning on having a world beating effort today. With the 10K on Saturday I just wanted some solid miles and not too much fatigue.
The real breakthrough was hitting more miles this year than I amassed in all of 2017. That might be more of a reflection on how little I did last year but I'm pretty pleased nonetheless.
