6 miles in the AM at 6:58 pace. A "progression run" getting faster with each mile: 7:13, 7:09, 7:06, 7:00, 6:49, 6:29. I can't usually make that last mile the quickest so I was pleasantly surprised to be able to do that this time.
Three observations:
1. running in the morning really is great if you can just get out of bed...
2. hydration belts bounce less sitting low on the hips
3. what a great way to start a day - and if you can't run, then jog, go for a hike or a walk, just as good

progression run - i like it! what a good idea. i'll have to try that sometime.
ReplyDeletei wish i could actually get up early on the weekend... but after getting up so ungodly early all week (for work) i tend to treat myself to 'sleeping in' until 7 or 8. i miss running early in the morning!
ReplyDeletenice job on the run! hope it was under 100 this time.
