Fitness Run

Distance: 5 miles
Time: 46:56
Pace: 9:23 min/mi

Comments: After the unfinished effort yesterday I wanted to 1) get out the door early enough to take advantage of the cooler temperatures and 2) get the extra mile back if I could. I was up pretty early and able to get to the course by about 6:30 a.m. so that part worked out.

It was actually nice temperature-wise but the humidity was formidable. I was drenched with sweat by the halfway point but the fatigue wasn't as bad. I got the five miles and, although I made it a point to ignore the pace entirely, that worked out pretty well too.
