I went to work in my running outfit and dropped my bag at the office and then headed out. I was running down Independence Ave. by 6:00am. I decided to run what I felt like running (pace-wise) and only looked at the Garmin to measure my distance. I ended up running 9:00 miles on average, but my splits were interesting. I started fast, then slowed for the second mile. And then each mile after that was increasingly fast.
By the way, my training program called for only 5 miles today. I assumed it was another 6 mile Wednesday run and didn't look at Hal Higdon's site until later in the day. Oh well... I liked my 6 mile run. And that last, bonus mile, was the best!
Last night I had pizza and ice cream for dinner. I could have eaten better, but I enjoyed this break from the 'healthy' routine. And it seemed to fuel my run OK too.
