MONDAY: Early evening 2.1 mile run with my 7 year old son. He was eager to run. He has great form (Actually, all of my kids have fantastic posture while running. I need to take notes. My shoulders are always tensed up). His pacing needs work, but he's seven.
TUESDAY: 4.98 miles, 42:21, 8:30 pace
WEDNESDAY: Off
THURSDAY: Off (again?)
FRIDAY: 3.95 miles, 32:40, 8:16 pace
SATURDAY: I got to the Bethpage Bike Trail early so I ran one mile solo at an 8:30 pace (which I could have sworn was an 8:00 pace. Oh well). The Emerging Runner arrived, then The Petite Pacer a couple of minutes later. We headed north (eventually separate) for 3.55 miles and then turned around. 8.1 miles total.
WEEKLY TOTAL: 25 miles! It blew the prior week's 7.56 out of the water. The week before that was 6.85! At this rate, I should be running a 70 mile week by the end of the month. Getting right on that...
We really need to work on our selfies! Welcome to my world where perceived effort feels about 30 seconds per mile faster than actual pace.
ReplyDeleteI think it's great that your son can do 2 miles at his age. Good genes.
I think this selfie is great! I would like to return to my world where perceived effort is 30-60 per mile slower than actual pace. It's a nice place and there's plenty of room. I suspect you and TPP will be visiting and like it so much, you'll decide to stay.
