Hot days, long runs
Not surprisingly, it’s been warm the last couple of days. Nonetheless, running has remained on my schedule. Tuesday’s work was on the track. I didn’t fare all that well. I got through the first 1.5-mile lactate threshold interval, but didn’t finish the second.
Ugh. Fail.
I added an extra cool-down mile to pick up my mileage; at least I could do that.
6.71 miles, 1:04:57, 9:40.7/mile
Wednesday’s run was the longest I’ve ever done on a weeknight. Eight miles was a rough distance on such a hot night. Fortunately, I was running with friends.
8 miles, 1:23:52, 10:29/mile
After the run, I returned to the Michigan Transportation Planning Association conference for evening social time. I had spent the day there, and wanted to spend time with some of the folks I don’t get to see so very often. I also needed to run, though. Such is my life.
