Workout: 3 Miles

Time: 24:03 (8:28, 8:10, 7:23)

Haven’t really had much to say about my runs this week, that’s why I haven’t blogged.  Tuesday I ran with my girlfriend.  It was the first time we ran out on the roads together.  She’s definitely getting better week to week.  Her running speed is increasing very well.  It was a pretty good run overall.

Tonight I decided to just run 3 again.  From the start my legs were tight.  I thought it was going to be a washed run, but, as you can see from my splits, it actually turned out to be a really good run.  I can’t remember the last time I ran negative splits like that.  It was finally not humid out, and relatively cooler than it’s been.  I did a nice loop with a fair amount of hills in it.  I really enjoyed it, and even the 7:23 final mile didn’t really feel hard.

On another note, I’ve decided to run Virginia Beach with my girlfriend, and am signing up for the ING Hartford 1/2 Marathon in October.  That way I can enjoy the run with my girlfriend, and still be able to run a PR this fall.  By running in October I should hopefully have some cooler weather, plus have several more weeks of training to get some speed work in.

Lastly, the baseball game has been rescheduled for August 24, so be on the lookout for the winning numbers.  You can buy tickets now!!  Contact me!
