I'm really going to enjoy my Sunday mornings. Getting out for a nice 10 miler, as I'll be doing for the next few weeks, is a great way to start the day. We've had pretty good weather, the traffic is light, and there's lots of terrain to mix things up. I know I'm getting stronger every time out.
This is the only run I do without a HR monitor. I don't like to race with heart rate on the run, so this allows me to go by feel. All I take is a watch, and I'm not even that concerned with pace. Things can change too much week to week. My only goal is to negative-split the run (I do a 5.25-mile loop twice). If I do the first loop too fast, then I have to pay for it by doing the second even faster. That'll teach me to be more conservative.
Today's run went without too much effort. Not too fast, just a nice even pace. An afternoon of hockey and Mongolian BBQ for dinner capped the day. Good stuff.
Run: 10.5 miles, 43:42 (8:19/mile)/42:33 (8:06/mile)
