Fitness Run

Distance: 4.02 miles
Time: 38:33
Pace: 9:35 min/mi

Comments: Surprised myself and got in another lunch run. The weather cooperated as did my meeting schedule so I decided to take advantage of it. I don't know how much longer either will cooperate.

Started slow but got a good cadence going on the first downhill and just tried to hold it the rest of the way. Did pretty well with that (except for the hills, of course) but the pace varied pretty dramatically anyway.

And I surprised myself with a 20 sec/mi bump in pace. Wild.

Fitness Run

Distance: 4.03 miles
Time: 39:58
Pace: 9:55 min/mi

Comments: Alright, the cooler weather has arrived and the doctor said I need to get back into it for my better good. There were a pair of afternoon meetings to staff today so I took a long lunch and got a run it.

Of course it was awful. I really just tried to keep the cadence going but there was nothing fancy about the effort. The dramatically cooler temperatures made a huge difference, though. Somehow I kept my overall pace under 10 min/mi.
