I’m not going for a run today….

Well, I had all but conceded the fact that I was not going to get a run in this morning until I saw my race day shorts and shirt nicely folded on top of the dryer.  I checked the time and it was still early so I said ok, a nice light jog.  Then I saw my headphones and thought cool, I’ll grab my phone and have some music.  Well, if I’m bringing my phone, I might as well bring my fuel belt to store it in the pocket and if I’m wearing the belt I might as well bring a bottle of water, and a gel.

What started out as a plan for a light jog turned into a 5 mile tempo run - My best effort of the season!

Mile 1:  9:53

Mile 2:  9:38

Mile 3:  9:07

Mile 4:  9:12

Mile 5:  8:06

5 Mile Total:  46:53
