SO hot today! We have a severe heat warning here, and I could already feel it at 6 am. It was pretty miserable. I read on runnersworld.com that you should slow your pace thirty seconds a mile for every 5 degrees over 65, so we slowed it down today and it was still hard to breathe through the heat and humidity.
My running partner is still recovering from vacation, so I ran another 1.16 miles when I got home so that I could get in some more miles and pick up my pace.
STATS: 5.16 miles, no idea on pace because we stood around talking afterwards. I am really excited for my birthday present so I can track my pace!!! (I did run a lot faster when I got home...)
Are you getting a Garmin??? I got one for Mother's Day and I am in love! It's so nice being able to check my exact pace, distance, time, etc. whenever during my run I'd like!
ReplyDeleteI'm excited to read some snippets on here as I started my training for my first 1/2 a week ago.
Have fun!
Erica, I ended up getting an iPod nano and the Nike + sport kit...which Garmin do you have?
