Tuesday 1/4/11

Woke up today and didn't do too much. Headed to the grocery for some supplies then went out for a run around 1pm. Decided to try a sort of tempo run since I haven't gone under 7:00 pace in forever. Have to start somewhere right? I did 6 miles: first 3 miles easy and second 3 miles a little faster. Splits were 7:42, 7:42, 7:30, 6:38, 6:28, 6:42. It felt really good until the last half mile which was straight into a headwind. Next week if the weather is ok I may head to a track for a workout. At work this evening we had our first half-marathon/marathon training run for Flying Pig. I am guessing we had about 80 people there which made it pretty fun. I won't find out what group or distance I will be coaching until this coming week most likely. Time to watch the second half of the Sugar Bowl...hopefully Arkansas can comeback to take down this Big Ten team!
