Runs from March 18-March 24, 2012, 31.55 Miles

March 19, 2012

5.3 Miles
49:12 Time
9:17 Pace

Fastest Greenwich Running Company group run in over 6 months.  Two of the other runners were fast and did a slightly longer loop early in the run.   I got caught up to them around Greenwich Ave and took off.  They said they had hoped to catch up with me, but no one catches me on Greenwich Ave.

6.97 Miles
1:10:28 Time
10:07 Pace

Ran with the Waveny group...How fast are they?  My HM PR is 2:09.  Out of the 16 members who ran the NYC Half this weekend, the times ranged from 1:25-2:07.  My GPS was messed up, so I used my time and then average pace from the last two Waveny runs to get the 6.97 miles.

11:01 Pace

I signed up for a race!  The Verrazano Half-Marathon At Shore Road Park, in Brooklyn.  It's in about 5 weeks.  The description says "this could be the fastest flattest USATF Certified course you ever run. Comprised of one long loop and one short loop in Brooklyn's Shore Road Park, this will be a beautiful half marathon..." At $30, it seems like a bargain!

New route (nice and hilly) and trying to run with water/Nuun as it's getting hotter.  Trying to make my longer runs slower and then picking up the pace for my speed/group runs.  Hopefully my pace overall picks up.

Felt so good running today, especially with it being mid 50s and a breeze.  I did struggle to pass a guy running with a baby stroller, but after a few minutes I was able to pass him.  Don't want to feel that kind of defeat again!
