First foray under 8min/mile

in EXHAUST3 months ago

I just finished a 6.705km running that lasted about 0hh:33mm:06ss !

Still catching up in posting the updates, but my training is still going fairly well. For that run, I knew I would not run for long because once again nightfall was almost upon us. So I tried to significantly increase the pace, right from the start. As often, it slowed down a little bit, especially on the third mile. But I was really glad to see I could really pick it up for the last mile or so. In the end, with an average pace at 7:56 min/mile, it was my fastest run so far this year. Like the title says, it was the first time under 8min/mile this year, which is actually my target pace for a 10k (going in steps till the final target distance: half marathon). I was obviously short a few kilometers, but it's still encouraging.

The really high heat and humidity, along with the typical thunderstorms for that kind of weather, prevented me from running as much as I wanted the following week. But I didn't give up, and like I said, the training is still going strong. More updates soon.

Keep Exhausting!

Thanks! We had more rain than usual this summer, and it's indeed really green everywhere. As for the air, we're pretty close to the city, so I'm not so sure about it.
