Total Distance
7.00

47o     81% humidity       clear skies.......beautiful

Slow warm up mile.  Not sure of the pace, my garmin hadn't picked up the satellites.  So I ran the distance and started keeping track after I reached the mile point.

Started mile 2 at moderate effort, and it was around an 8:50 pace.  Mile 3 was around an 8:30 pace, and mile 4 was an 8:50 pace.  It got harder to keep up the pace as the miles went on.  The moderate effort went from a 5 to a 7, but I knew it was only for a short time, so I just went with it.  The last mile I ran slower..I wanted an easy cool down.  I can't remember the exact pace, but it was between a 9 & 9:30.  1/3 mile walk at the end. 

I managed a quick nap before work. I'm loving those morning naps.

Probably do running/bleachers after work as well. 

Added two miles after work.  Went running with someone who hasn't run for a while, so they were slow and easy miles.  We even walked a little, but it was good company and I enjoyed the sunshine.

Nice work on the paces! I'm so lazy, most of the time I never look at my garmin/pace, I just run what I feel like running. Somedays that is faster and others slower.

Glad you enjoyed your nap, we ALL need those! Enjoy your bleachers after work :)

Very nice run this morning.

I'm very impressed that you run bleachers and that you get out twice in one day.

RAD- I checked my paces after I'd finished. I just know when I'm running faster tha 9mm because my watch beeps to slow down. I figure if I'm feeling good about the pace, I'll just keep going at the faster pace. I knew I was slowing down today because it was beeping a lot less on mile 4 than it was on mile 2.

And I like doing the running/bleachers after school because of the people I get to do it with more than for the exercise. Kind of a social hour in running shoes kind of a thing.
